If you’re like me, there’s nothing worse than seeing a spelling, punctuation or grammar mistake in a professional document or email. My major at Ohio University was Journalism, so grammar rules have been ingrained in me. I also spent a few years working at a press release distribution company and was financially incentivized to make sure press releases were sent out error-free. Needless to say, it’s one of those things that make me tick. In an effort to minimize the common mistakes I come across, I’ve put together this infographic that you can keep at your desk for reference. Note: all guidelines below are according to AP Style.
