A complete sentence cannot exist without one, yet a single verb can create complete meaning. (See?) In this brilliant exploration of language, grammar, and style, Sarah L.

Across eleven chapters, Kaufman proves how strong verbs can make your own writing--be it an email, a text, a report, or an ad--more efficient and effective, and investigates theories of language that will change how you read and write. But this isn't a grammar guide, and it surely isn't a set of rules. Great writing comes from a mix of inspiration, passion, and intelligence--from your unique discernment and imagination. Searching for the right verb might even reveal something true about yourself. All that in a word. So go. Write.
