Dear Diary: I Have 99 Problems and They’re All Numbers
From the author who turned punctuation into a punchline comes the ultimate survival guide for writers battling the tyranny of numbers.
Whether it’s deciding between "three" and "3," taming rogue percentages, surviving the date-format wars, or figuring out what to do with "1980s" and its wandering apostrophe, this diary takes you inside one writer’s hilariously fraught relationship with the numerical side of writing.
Packed with bite-sized rules, laugh-out-loud confessions, and formatting wisdom salvaged from the wreckage, each entry proves you can tackle grammar and style without losing your voice (or your mind).
If you’ve ever spent twenty minutes debating a hyphen in "thirty-year-old," or spiraled over whether to spell out "seven" in a title, you’re in the right place.
Part style guide, part comedy, and part emotional support for anyone who’s cried over an Excel spreadsheet-this book will make you laugh, nod in recognition, and maybe even finally learn where to put that percent sign.
