Along with a list of synonyms, each common word comes with definitions, sample sentences, witty quotes, explanations of why the word fails to communicate, and much more.The founder of Creative Solutions, K.D. Sullivan is the author or coauthor of several books including The Gremlins of Grammar and The McGraw-Hill Desk Reference for Editors, Writers, and Proofreaders.
