" Effective writing has the illusion of speech without its bad habits.
The reader hears a writer speaking to a reader.
The writing should flow with grace, pace, and clarity — not the way we speak
but, better than that, the way we should speak."
Donald Morison Murray, Writing to Deadline: The Journalist At Work
