Overview

Understanding how to recognize clauses is the key to becoming a better writer. If you can spot all the clauses in your writing, you can make your subjects and verbs agree, avoid run-on errors, punctuate your sentences correctly, write more concisely, and focus your message for optimum effect. In this book, you'll learn a new process for finding the subject/verb combinations that are the core of your clauses, and, with the help of the many illustrative examples provided, you'll discover how to use that knowledge to create the effects you want. If you are a teacher, homeschooler, student, or writer, you owe it to yourself to discover the connection between "clause and effect."
