Since I've just started a new book, I decided to get out of my comfort zone and post about a different topic (isn't that what writing is all about?) Let's talk about building yourself as a writer. I can't even count the amount of times I've heard people say that there are no rules to writing, but I think that it is important for every author to hear a few tips, and I've found the perfect list.
After I saw this picture on tumblr I went looking for more, and found a website full of them (http://www.plainlanguage.gov/examples/humor/writegood.cfm) Maybe it's my love for writing talking, but I think they're hilarious! My favorite is "don't repeat yourself, or say again what you have said before." Now, are these jokes corny, or actually really good? Let me know what you guys think in the comments below! Even though it's only meant to be funny, reading this list has shown me that there are, in fact, rules when it comes to writing, but that they are made to be broken.
Hilarious! I like "who needs rhetorical questions?" Although I tend to ask a lot of rhetorical questions in my writing...
ReplyDeleteThey are corny, but still funny. Good find! What's the new book you are reading?
