Writing can be a fun exercise. However, like many other skills, you have to do your best to develop the craft. Regularly I reread two books trying to remind me that I should never give up on trying to improve such an important skill. The two books are:
- “Elements of Style” by Strunk & White
- “On Writing Well” by Zinsser
Another one to also throw to the mix is “Writing with power: Techniques for mastering the writing process” by Elbow. However, If you are looking for something short and concise “Technical Writing for Fun & Profit” by David E. Goldberg is a must-read recipe for engineers.
