Review:
"Sin Boldly offers students the kind of insight we all hope they will acquire during their time with us, but which most of them, unfortunately, never do. Stop lamenting over those bits of wisdom you wish you'd written down - they're all here. Dr. Dave's book is witty and irreverent, and that means students will actually read it. Assign it in your courses, and your students will thank you." -- August McCarthy, Adjunct Professor of English Composition, George Mason University
"A must-read for anyone intimidated by writing assignments." -- Former 98 pound weakling
"A smart, sassy, and original approach to acing the college paper." -- "3.8" college student
"A traitor to his generation, Dr Dave reveals to us X'ers what the academic boomers are trying to pull." -- Reformed Hacker
"Dr Dave is the brat who pointed out that the emperor has no clothes." -- Thankful student
"Dr. Dave is full of excellent advice for students and professionals. I recommend it to my students and use it myself." -- Eliza McCormack, Editor and Lecturer, Cambridge Center for Adult Education
"Essential reading for any student stymied by a writing assignment." -- Perplexed Parent
"This little book cuts through the digested grasses left behind by the old bulls who run America's English departments with clear, entertaining, and practical advice....Sin Boldly! renders the teaching of composition redundant. It should be banned from bookstores, libraries, and course curricula." -- James Stripes, Ph.D., Adjunct Instructor, Whitworth College
"Writer's block? Here's how to get around it!" -- Former blockhead
