BUGS in Writing is an outstanding guide to improved writing; the explanations of em-dash and semicolon use were particularly helpful to me. I disavowed Dupre's advice and read her book from cover-to-cover, mainly because I was reading a borrowed copy—I may eventually buy my own copy to put on the shelf with Strunk and White.
