Making them up as I go (2)
1. Tell the truth.
2. Entice, or fail.
3. To emphasize, summarize.
4. If it ain't short, it don't work.
5. Be clear.
And so I don't forget:
Don't explain. Just tell a story.
Don't argue. Just say things that make sense.
Expect people to be bored by the writing, and shorten it.
Make the wording easy to take.
Remove Loose Ends -- the interesting one-liners that go nowhere.

I’d hate to be scheduled for work next Saturday.
I'd hate to be the guy responsible for the design of that ad.
