My new goal.

I was looking at this post again.  Steven C. Holtzman powerfully said in four five words that which took me twenty later on in the post. It strikes me how much harder I find it to write a strong four word sentence, as opposed to an eight, twelve, or twenty word sentence. I definitely need to tighten up my style and make it more concise.

Time to reread Strunk & White, methinks.

Edited to add: not only can I not write a concise sentence, I can't count: the quote I used was five words long, not four.
