Description
Not sure when you should start a new sentence? Or whether a comma should go before or after a word? Or if you should use an apostrophe or not? Ruth Colman strips out all the jargon to make understanding punctuation easy. This concise and practical guide will shed light on the most common questions you might have about punctuation: When do I end and begin a sentence? Where should I put commas? Should I capitalise that or not? How do I make something a possessive? How do I treat quotes and lists? When should I use a hyphen? It's not that hard, really. Just a few simple rules, presented in a simple way and you'll be writing perfect sentences that say what you want to say, and what you mean to say.
