For a few months now, Grammar Girl, a.k.a. Mignon Fogarty, has been podcasting away on grammar issues and other writing concerns. Her weekly “Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing,” according to a recent CNN.com article about Grammar Girl, have been downloaded over 1.3 million times since she started producing the podcasts in July. Her tips are entertaining and useful as well — take a listen — the latest podcast is on the age old question of when to use “further” rather than “farther.” You can also download or subscribe to these free podcasts (there are 39 to date) through the iTunes music store if you are so inclined.
