Analyzing
his own writing and that of his teachers, and reflecting on the writing
advice he had been given over the years, Carroll Dale Short’s epiphany
was the recognition of a dozen practical fundamentals of good writing.
As one would expect from the author of The Shining Shining Path (also
from NewSouth Books), the book is also fun to read. Drawing upon example
after example, Short reveals the shortcuts and techniques of strong
writing, providing easy ways to use transitions, enhance narrative
sequence, and spice up dialogue. Reading this tool kit will improve any
writer, from expert to novice. |
