What a cool "little" book. Brutal, concise to a dot, and simple.
I'm endeavoring to incorporate several of these "elements" in my writing, but a few in particular come to mind:
6: Do not overwrite.
I'm a fan of big words, run-on sentences, and big flowery passages. I feel My writing could use a little less overwriting, for I'm not a fan of the whole brevity thing.
17. Omit Needless Words.
This is all I've been seeing on my reviewed reviews, big loops through extraneous "subsequently"s and "obviously,"s. Gotta work on word-for-word conciseness.
