Writing Tips for Non-Writers

Here's the task that the author of "Whatever" blog tried to answer in his blog entry: "Tell y'all how to write better without
you actually having to make an effort. Fine. Here's how I would do it." He did a good job, I must say.

  • With sentences, shorter is better than longer.

  • Try to write well every single time you write.

  • Read people who write well.

  • When in doubt, simplify.
