STEVEN PINKER ON WRITING




 “The primary – indeed the first – and most abiding precept for all writing is clarity, to be clear, understood and intelligible.” Steven Pinker.

Something needs to be fixed when we have to go back and reread a sentence because it is unclear to us. The writer should do his job well so as not to force the reader to go back, again and again, to understand what he has written. I think that is bad manners on the part of the author.
