Zinsser was a master writer. He has written over 18 best sellers and countless of other essays, weblogs, & publications over his lifetime. This book is one that I have many authors recommend reading including Tim Ferris- author of the 4 Hour Work Week.
What I enjoyed about his book is the practical tips, methods and principles that Zinsser shares from the very first page. I was enthralled with his with his ability to communicate his message- educating me while also holding me down. I didn’t want to stop reading.
Some of the principles I have become to understand such as using simplicity in writing and also the need to remove clutter. The principles allow the reader to remain involved without getting distracted or losing any understanding. There were many principles however that were new to me.
