Here's what I have in common with Papa Hemingway: I love words, and I'm a writer.
When it comes to writing ads (and when I say ads, I mean everything from web pages to emails to postcards!), it's hard to find better advice than Ernest Hemingway's Four Rules of Writing.
Hemingway's Four Rules of Writing
- Use short sentences.
- Use short first paragraphs.
- Use vigorous English.
- Be positive, not negative.
Those rules are posted on the wall behind my computer monitor. You could do worse than to post them near yours.
