Master the language as much as possible. Good writing requires good sentences. Never write a bad (or incorrect) sentence. Make your sentences flow smoothly with music and rhythm. Study the masters. Write with precision – like Shakespeare. Master the different rhetorical techniques. Edit. Edit. Edit. and Simplify. Simplify. Simplify.

After teaching English 101 and English 102 classes in college for over 15 years, I decided to consolidate the best information about writing I had collected over the years and put the best of the best of that information into one book. I wanted to share my valuable information about writing with the public at large. I wanted to simplify writing as well so that more people could write successfully. I believe writing matters, and I wanted to show people how easy writing can be.
