PRINCIPLES OF GOOD WRITING
-- L.A.
HILL
“Principles
of Good Writing” is an essay written by L.A.
Hill. In this essay, he points out the
rules and regulations to be served in sharpening one’s writing skills.
At
first, step by step thoughts must be clearly brought out. One should read widely to improve
vocabulary. Writing is 90% perspiration
(hard work) and 10% inspiration. There
are plenty of things around us for subject matter. While writing, one must keep in mind the kind
of readers one is writing for. The
subject must be of topical interest.
Presentation is very important in good writing. In the first paragraph one’s point of view
must be put forward. The last paragraph must sum up the clear ideas of what one
is writing. Personal problems or
complaints should not be included. It is
better to write in a simple and conversational style. Prefer the concrete to the abstract
words. Avoid slang expressions and also
the literary expressions.
