10 Tips on Writing Well from David Ogilvy

nevver:

  1. Read the Roman-Raphaelson book on writing. Read it three times.
  2. Write the way you talk. Naturally.
  3. Use short words, short sentences and short paragraphs.
  4. Never use jargon words like reconceptualize, demassification, attitudinally, judgmentally. They are hallmarks of a pretentious ass.
  5. Never write more than two pages on any subject.
  6. Check your quotations.
  7. Never send a letter or a memo on the day you write it. Read it aloud the next morning — and then edit it.
  8. If it is something important, get a colleague to improve it.
  9. Before you send your letter or your memo, make sure it is crystal clear what you want the recipient to do.
  10. If you want ACTION, don’t write. Go and tell the guy what you want.

Lithe and free, willeth

thou not arise from your abode of terror and love with me?

Late at night, it seems to be my world is falling apart.
There isn’t much I can do than just close my eyes and sleep it off.

Funny, round shots heard up ahead

They bored into my skull and into my frontal lobe, treading,

already heading into the depths of perceptive bliss.

Fluttering.

Buttering.

(Morning table discussions— decisions— with you make me happy.)

It’s the very thing that makes you fall in love, cry, scream..
It is is the only thing that can simultaneously break you down and put you back together again.
The power that stories hold over me:
Infinite.

Have you ever felt so cold that your innards started to quiver and vibrate violently? 

Fits of cold 

spreading.  

Five, five words for this;

Seven to balance the format.

Full circle round back.
