How to write good...


How to write good...

1) Avoid Alliteration. Always.
2) Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
3) Avoid clichés like the plague. (They're old hat.)
4) Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc.
5) One should never generalize.
6) Comparisons are as bad as clichés.
7) Be more or less specific.
8) Sentence fragments? Eliminate.
9) Exaggeraction is a billion times worse than understatement.
10) Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary.
11) Who needs rhetorical questions?
