I am trying to become a better writer. Not that I think I am a poor one, but I could use some help on topics like style, grammar and spelling. It can be tricky using hyphens correctly and knowing when to use third person masculine. So I did some searching and came up with a few links to help those like myself. The following can help the amateur fine tune his skills and meet standards practiced by professionals:

• Web copy style


• The Chicago Manual of Style


• News Room 101


• The 2005 edition of the AP Stylebook


• Defeat Writing Sins


• Stephen King on writing


• tinySpell spell checker
