## Description

Several Short Sentences about Writing : Klinkenborg, Verlyn: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: One of the reasons I'm skeptical of a lot of writing advice books is for how they'll clutter my head with a lot of rules - each of which I'll need to spend time assessing to see if a) they make sense to me, b) they are a rule or a stylistic preference marketed as a rule, c) are important enough for me to put it in my shortlist of editing tools I always use or are more of a general maxim I'll just try to keep in mind. The reason this book really vibes with me, and why I'm comfy recommending it, is I found it does the opposite. It decluttered my mind and helped me see core, highly valuable writing concepts clearly for the first time in a long time.
Review: The author first highlights the disservice a school education does to the skills of writing, which was a little repetitive. The text really takes off after that, explaining how short sentences are important, and how they are the building blocks for longer ones. It’s all about sentences. Sentences are the building blocks, and writers hone the sentences, especially the short ones. He also writes about other things, how an outline is a ‘catwalk’, that you can use outlines at first, but shouldn’t rely too much on them. The entire book is like the medicine you hate that taste of, but have to take it. It’s excellent medicine, though.
