Tips for Aspiring Writers

Perhaps you're thinking of starting your own blog.

Good move. That is wiser than breaking in with a 600-word novel.

Marvin Olasky says, "The world suffers from overwriting more

than under-writing. Is Marvin secretly reading Views?

Mark Twain: "When you catch adjectives, kill most of them..."

Others say, "Kill your darlings," expressions that seem precious to you.

A British poet: "Be simple. Omit needless words. Write less; rewrite more."

We get it. We're outta here, with just 98 words.

In case you're wondering.

We are using our tablet, on our lap, and it tilts to the right,

so the words all slide to the right. Sorry about that.
