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.

Dashing!

Swear to god, the first time I saw this I thought they meant HOW to RUT them, and wondered What's a FREE TURN anyway? It sounds like something you'd get in a video game, not on a lawn mower:


That's why god invented the dash. RUT-FREE TURNS, DAMMIT. RUT-FREE, not RUT FREE.
