lynne truss

Ohhh...I'm ashamed.
I made my list of my favorite people from Britain, Scotland, etc. and forgot to include one of my favorite authors in the world.
So here she is, and she even gets her own post!
-
Lynne Truss is the author of Eats, Shoots, and Leaves: A Zero-Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. It's a book about the carelessness regarding punctuation in today's world - but it's very humorous, too. She also has a new book out that I've not yet read called Talk to the Hand, which is about rudeness.
