World Wide Words (Michael Quinion) — An extensive site “devoted to the English language – its history, quirks, curiosities and evolution.” Always interesting.
English Usage, Style, & Composition — A collection of reference works at Bartleby.com, including American Heritage, Strunk & White, Fowler’s King’s English, and other indispensable public-domain works. Worth a bookmark.
Grammar Resources on the Web — the University of Chicago Writing Program provides annotated links to useful Web sites on grammar and style. Eminently sensible.
EnglishForums.com — Discussion groups on English grammar, usage, and style.
Guardian Style Guide — A thorough guide to the house style of The Guardian. American users should note that it’s a British publication; all users should note that it settles their own house style, and doesn’t pretend to rule on the language as a whole.
WordNet: A Lexical Database for English (Princeton) — “An on-line lexical reference system whose design is inspired by current psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets.”
Essays on the Craft of Dramatic Writing (Bill Johnson) — A collection of short original pieces on writing, especially screenplays. Focuses on plot, characters, that sort of thing.
Technical Writing (Ronald B. Standler) — A well written collection of useful tips for technical writers. Bear in mind, though, that some guidelines apply only to technical writing.
Copyright Law (Ronald B. Standler) — A helpful, informal overview of American copyright law.
Plagiarism in Colleges in USA (Ronald B. Standler) — A very useful essay on plagiarism, including the ethical and legal questions, with plenty of guidelines for students.
Copyediting:
Editors Ink — A guide to copyediting, valuable for both professional editors and novice writers.
WriteBusiness.com — Mostly a commercial site, but includes a good collection of free resources, including tips on copyright, MS preparation, and the writing business.
The Vocabula Review — An electronic journal on usage. Tends to be conservative, but not mindlessly so; still, perhaps too splenetic for many. A regular feature, “Grumbling about Grammar,” suggests the tone a little too well.
CompPile (Rich Haswell) — “An ongoing inventory of publications in post-secondary composition, rhetoric, ESL, and technical writing.” A large and impressive bibliography of sources.
Plagiarism (Sharon Stoerger) — A huge collection of information on plagiarism, copyrights, intellectual freedom, term paper mills, and so on. Nearly comprehensive.
