写作技巧分享:Writing Tips from Oakley Hall

发布时间:2016-03-02  编辑:查字典英语网小编

  When asked a few years ago, as a novelist and teacher of writing, for a list of writing tips to accompany a publicity piece in a San Francisco newspaper, I produced the following list:

  1. Write every day.

  2. Observe and listen.

  3. Employ all the senses.

  4. Use strong verbs.

  5. Detail!

  6. A specific always beats an abstraction.

  7. Describe in motion.

  8. Anglo-Saxon words are usually more effective than romance based.

  9. Fiction is dramatization; dramatization is point of view, sense impressions, detail, action and dialogue.

  10. In dialogue, keep speeches short.

  11. Look for likenesses, parallels, contrasts, antitheses and reversals.

  12. Beware the use of the habitual case , the passive voice and the word there.

  13. Plotting is compulsion versus obstacles.

  14. In the second draft, start deleting adverbs.

  15. Borrow widely, steal wisely.
