Sent you your writer's good book.
Sent you today a copy of an informal email
message
to my law buddy Richard from Long Beach,
showing
you mumbling agrammatical style, informal.
Good luck with writing book. Lots of good lore
in
it to help you free up and make more alive
your writing style. Remember, its just talking on paper, only one step from
thinking on paper. Needn't be formal.
As Hemingway once said , about his writing
style,
you have to know the rules before you break
them.
He was a newspaper guy before he began writing
those classic novels.
