Only the first thirty minutes after you woke up today.
What did you do this morning? Write it in order.
Everyone gets the same subject. What differs is the follow-up: one question for children, two for teens, three for adults. Only the children's wording is simplified.
Delete every line anyone could have written. What is left is yours.
Pick one. A single idea taken all the way beats ten touched lightly.
Cut every “well, but”. The sentence stands up straight without them.
One word that needs a dictionary is where reading stops.
Not 'it was decided' but 'I decided'. Leave out the doer and the writing hides.
Writing through the body needs no explaining.
