Rules For Writers
I found this in my online travels on the WritersJokes web site and thought it was worth sharing. Enjoy!
- Verbs HAS to agree with their subjects.
- Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
- And don’t start a sentence with a conjunction.
- It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.
- Avoid clichés like the plague. (They’re old hat.)
- Be more or less specific.
- Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are (usually) unnecessary.
- Also too, never, ever use repetitive redundancies.
- No sentence fragments.
- Don’t use no double negatives.
- Proofread carefully to see if you any words out or mispeld something.
- Eschew obfuscation.
