Elements of Style Winner

]]> I wonder if William Strunk and E.B. White knew what a fabulous resource they were creating for writers when they published The Elements of Style? Many of you commented on our giveaway post, with several folks that said you had the book in college. There were also a few writers out there that said they could use the book for work. Even today, it is one of the bestselling books around.

So a big congratulations goes out to Jan P., who is our winner! Jan echoed many other people when she said, “I remember this from college journalism. Sure could use it now in my new writing career.”

I hope it brings you many happy hours in writing, Jan!
