* Craft Wickedly Effective Prose *

Image hosted by TinyPic.com



With all the reading I have been doing for my thesis, I was delighted when I came across Sin and Syntax, by Constance Hale. I am only able to read a couple pages every night before I go to bed. She describes the rules of writing very much like we do in graphic design. It has almost become cliche within design education to hear,“Go ahead and break the rules, but first you must know them”. In the beginning of this book, she describes writing in the same way. It is defintily a hummrous approarch to a writing guide. Which makes it so much fun to read. I hope to feel the same way about this book when I am done.
