Writing Thinly

The first and most important thing of all, at least for writers today, is to strip language clean, to lay it bare down to the bone.
~Ernest Hemingway



shhhhh

"There is not an idea that cannot be expressed in 200 words. But the writer must know precisely what he wants to say. If you have nothing to say and want badly to say it, then all the words in all the dictionaries will not suffice."
~Eric Hoffer
