Here's some good advice!!

A writer needs three qualities: creativity, originality, clarity and a good short term memory.

Resist the temptation to roll up the trouser-legs of convention, cast off the shoes and socks of good taste, and dip your toes refreshingly into the cool, flowing waters of fanciful analogy.

If there’s a word on the tip of your tongue that you can’t quite pin down, use a cinnamon.

Mixed metaphors can kill two birds without a paddle.
