Several Short Sentences About Writing

Why I recommend it

Klinkenborg brings writing back to the sentence. He asks us to slow down, listen, and choose what we actually mean.

What it changed in my thinking

We don’t need the whole piece figured out to write one clear sentence. That sentence can help us find the next.

Who it’s useful for

Writers who feel stuck or whose drafts sound flat.

A tension or limitation

The short, repeated observations won’t suit everyone. Sentences still need to add up to something a reader can follow.
