Definitely found a few that I could improve upon.
Would love the opportunity to read an article on penmanship, and of ways to improve upon it. It is one of those topics that is repeatedly stressed in various articles; however, it is rarely expanded upon.

Thank You.

Hill’s Manual is the Best!

I rescued a beat up copy from the trash and have treasured it since.
You can find it at archive.org as a PDF if you dig around a little…

There’s a few versions, not sure which is best?

Rather than a list of “nevers,” I’d like to see a list of “always.”

I especially appreciate the one about traveling abroad, because as an American. I feel as if I need to be highly respectful of other countries when traveling, as often my countrymen are thought of poorly in this category.

This is a great list, and I will refer to it often. However, the first verb is misspelled. Please look again at exaggerate, and then feel free to delete this comment. Thank you so much for your insightful and useful website.

Never, when traveling abroad, be over boastful in praise of your own country

My favourite, seeing as I constantly encounter foreign people here in the UK who go on and on about how much better their country is than Britain – if you don’t like it here pal then go home.

By the way I’m Italian by birth
