More resources: From Purdue (Owl) University
I have just discovered these amazing resources! The sheer amount is dizzying. Some resources are for academic writing, but a significant amount is just pure grammar, punctuation and other writing rules, as well as specific advice for fiction and manuscripts. While I am primarily a developmental editor, focusing on big-picture edits, I will be using these resources for a long time to come.
A little about the University:
What's in a Name?
A liberal arts education is timeless. From its very beginnings, Purdue has produced well-rounded graduates able to think, communicate, and be successful. Liberal Arts has transformed from a service department for engineering and agriculture students at Purdue to its own distinct entity, with finely educated undergraduate students and nationally acclaimed graduate programs. It has evolved to become a powerful and important part of the University, at times surpassing engineering as the largest college at Purdue. But it wasn't always such a distinct organization. From humble beginnings to a promising future, the College of Liberal Arts has come a long and winding way.
Make the most out of these incredible free resources. Let me know if you find anything else I should include!
