Know your shit, or know you’re shit.

That might be true, but like with most art forms, you really need to understand the rules that do exist before you can successfully subvert them

Ignoring the irony of your missing full stop, this is correct.

For example, look at the work of Edward Estlin Cummings.

I think this is the sort of thread that bores the hell out of me and is not coundu conducti to making people communicative to comunicat useful for helpfulll or interestinising.

For example, look at the work of Edward Estlin Cummings

Was that him who played for Sunderland in the eighties? Or was that s. cummins?

Pjay’s post reminded me of something. Someone who taught me to teach English mentioned the descriptive/adjective “s” without an apostrophe so when it came to teaching some Spanish students I taught it. One of them asked me for an example, which proved embarrassing as all the examples I could think of needed an apostrophe or were compound nouns. I failed so if anyone can come up with one.

I think I may have misunderstood the question but…glass vase?

For example, look at the work of Edward Estlin Cummings.

I might submit this proposal in the style of e e cummings then.

‘Successful Manager’s Handbook”

because

“Successful Managers’ Handbook” looks and feels wrong. You could argue that a book is only read by one person at a time, suggesting a singular reader, even if there are several managers the book might appeal to or be written for. (But I think most writers imagine they are talking to one person when they write.*)

But

“The Handbook of Successful Management”

or

“A Handbook for Successful Managers”

or

“How to be a Successful Manager”

might be better titles for that particular handy-sized book.

* A similar problem arises for tech authors when they have to write something for user’s/users’. Most folk settle on the singular in that case.

I’m bored.
