Place yourself in the background — Write to serve the reader, not to show off. Style emerges from content, not from the writer's ego.
Write naturally — Don't consciously imitate others or force an affected style. Write as you would speak to an intelligent friend.
Work from suitable design — Plan your piece. Know your scope and structure before writing extensively.
Write with nouns and verbs — These give writing strength. Adjectives and adverbs are not your principal weapons.
Revise and rewrite — Good writing is rewriting. Don't expect first drafts to be final.
Don't overwrite — Avoid ornate, flowery prose. Rich prose is hard to digest.
Don't overstate — Avoid superlatives and exaggeration. A single overstatement can undermine your credibility.
Avoid qualifiers — Words like "very," "rather," "quite," "pretty," and "little" weaken prose.
Don't affect breeziness — Forced casualness and flip remarks suggest the writer values cleverness over substance.
Use orthodox spelling — Follow standard conventions unless you have good reason not to.
Don't explain too much — Trust the reader. Avoid excessive adverbs after "said" and over-explanatory dialogue tags.
Don't construct awkward adverbs — Avoid forcing "-ly" onto words that don't take it naturally.
Make sure speakers are clear — In dialogue, readers must always know who is speaking.
Avoid fancy words — Prefer the plain word to the fancy one. "Home" not "domicile."
Use dialect sparingly — The best dialect writers use minimal deviation from standard language.
Be clear — Clarity is the foundation. Muddiness is not depth; obscurity is not profundity.
Don't inject opinion — Keep personal opinions out unless they serve the work. They mark the egoist.
Use figures of speech sparingly — Metaphors and similes need space. Constant comparison exhausts the reader.
Don't sacrifice clarity for shortcuts — Strong, precise words are better than clever abbreviations.
Avoid foreign languages — Write in English. Foreign phrases can seem pretentious.
Prefer standard to offbeat — Choose established words over trendy or invented ones.
