Hello to all of you who write press releases -
Once again, I'm asking my best source of good information for suggestions.
My husband does public relations for a software company. Because he writes
so many of the press releases himself, he needs a thesaurus and a grammar
book for reference at work (but he's not into diagramming sentences). He
already has the AP Style Guide. (My needs in technical writing are
different enough from his so that I figured I'd make a more targeted
request.)
Thanks in advance ... Jane
