​The essentials of writing

I'm in the process of re-writing the first novel I wrote ten years ago.
To refresh my memory, I tried to find information on the clarity and style of writing because... yes, I made and still make a lot of mistakes in my writing.
Well, I've only found over-detailed, confusing info that's going on and on...
Boring!
So, I decided to create short, fun videos to help beginner authors.

Basics for Writers:
​Clarity and Style #2

Picture
This video is part of a series that I'm planning to post. Hopefully, once a week, as my time allows.
My goal is to refresh my own memory as well as to provide helpful tool to other authors.
The series will include:
Emphasis
Conciseness
Variety and details
Appropriate words
Exact words

Conciseness

Concise writing makes every word count.
​Originality and detail should not be cut with needless words.
Conciseness: the length of an expression should be appropriate to the thought.
