How's My Writing? Call 463-8663

Any time I run across a well written site/post, it makes me want to improve my own writing. That feeling is compounded these days because I'm planning on taking a course on fiction writing (don't worry, I'm not planning on joining the blogging tories:) in the fall, and also because I've recently been reading 'Self-Editing for Fiction Writers', and 'The Elements of Style' - not to mention this post on annoying expressions from the Canadian Cynic: all of which have made me realize just how many cliches, awkward/wordy phrases, business/marketing expressions and so on infect (infest?) my writing, both fiction and this blog as well. At this time, I just want to finalize my habit of writing wordy, overlong sentences and due to the fact that two heads are better than one and notwithstanding the also true fact that too many cooks spoil the broth, the truth remains that I would hopefully be able to fruitfully utilize some assistance and feedback from my loyal customersreaders.

So I just thought I'd throw out an open invitation for people to comment on how they think the writing on this blog could be improved. That's a pretty narrow topic, so really, if there's any aspect of this blog at all (style, topics covered, writing, lack of pictures, font, presentation, layout, doesn't display properly in your browser, etc.) that you think could be improved, leave a comment or send me an email (gmdunne at yahoo.com). Of course, you can do that any time, but consider this a specific invitation.
