Now you can better recognize individual sentences in your own writing and in things you read. 7th grade 8th grade 9th grade high school college E.B. White was a famous writer long before he published Charlotte's web. As a regular contributor to The New Yorker, he was soon recognized as a master stylist for his wonderful essays. On more than one occasion, White William Strunk, Jr., one of his professors at Cornell, credited himself well for schooling him in the basics of writing. Strunk had published what he called The Little Book with the official title of Elements of Style as a mandatory handbook for many writing courses at Cornell. White so admired the book that he was instrumental in having it updated and republished under the same title, Elements of Style, but with his name as co-author for the updates and additions he added to his mentor's original work. One of the notable lines of the handbook was number 13, omitting unnecessary words, and it made such an impression on White that he later wrote: I have tried to omit unnecessary words since 1919, and although there are still many words that scream for omission and the enormous task will never be accomplished, it is exciting for me to re-read the masterful Strunkian elaboration of this noble theme. Dan white quotes William Strunk, Jr.: Powerful writing is concise. A sentence should not contain unnecessary words, a paragraph should not contain unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should not have unnecessary lines and a machine should not have unnecessary parts. This does not require the writer to short-word all his sentences, or to avoid all the details and to cover his subjects only in circumference, but that every word tells that. I have owned the 1959 edition of Strunk and White for many years, and, like E.B. White, as a writer and teacher, I have benefited from the rules and suggestions for writing well. There's another book that did more for my own writing. It's clearly a cousin of Strunk and White-the tone and style echo the same practical common sensibility of The Elements of Style, but the main principles of Lucile Vaughan Payne's little masterpiece, The Lively Art of Writing, still come to mind at any time I write a sentence. I don't know if it's a better book than The Elements of Writing, but I came to know it better, much better, because I used it as a textbook for many writing lessons I taught in the 1980s (yes, the 1980s-before Andy was born and around the time when Carol turned 40). Like Strunk and White's handbook, The Lively Art of Writing based on some simple rules for writing, but each line is accompanied by interesting elaboration, spot-on examples, and a series of exercises that allow aspiring writers to try out the principles in their own writing. Designed as a book Use in English composition courses, it focuses on writing the essay, and as a book published in the mid-1960s, it promotes some stylistic movements that today could be considered stuffy or old-fashioned. But it still has a lot of advice for all kinds of writers. Here are some of the rules for style: Don't use a first person. Never use the word there. Obviously I'm still having trouble following the first rule, but the second rule is one that I've followed pretty conscientiously for decades, and it's helped sharpen and improve my style. This gem continues from the chapter on style to discuss The size and shape of middle paragraphs, Connections between paragraphs, The Passive Voice, The Sound of Sentences, Parallel Structure, A Way with Words and Other Practical Writing Principles. My students and I especially benefited from Chapter 9, The Sound of Sentences, because it taught us how to begin with what Payne called the basic statement and develop into more interesting sentences that they called the tied-along sentence and periodic sentence. Of course, these two forms can be combined to create other interesting types of sentences. Here are the main ideas. The basic statement is a sentence reduced to its bare bones. If you remove even one word from it, you damage the meaning. For example: Bells went. The tied sentence is a basic statement with details tied along it. For example, Bells called, filling the air with their clangor, surprising pigeons in the flight of each belfry, allowing people in the streets to hear the news. Finally, the periodic sentence is a basic statement with additional details added into it. From the basic statement Love is blind, periodic sentences turn into Love, as everyone knows, except those who happen to be involved, is blind. This isn't complicated, earth-shaking stuff, but words and phrases are the stones we use to build the mansions of our stories. The better the stones, the better the stories. Okay, kids, it's homework time. Here are some sentence writing exercises of the vivid art of writing cool little chapter, The Sound of Sentences: A. Write a taped sentence at least 20 words long using each of the basic statements below as a starting point. 1. The moon rose. 2. The man was dead. 3. He longed to be free. 4. She liked the song. 5.

The world's greatest invention is the safety pin. 3. Hate is based on fear. 4. The man was dead. 5. The circus was his life.
