TThis morning, I had the good fortune to read <a href=”http://www.ewa.org/site/News2?page=NewsArticle&id=6595&news_iv_ctrl=1981 “>this</a>, which then took me to <a href=”http://www.sptimes.com/2005/01/28/Tampabay/After_the_sky_fell.shtml”>this</a>, which reminded me of <a href=” http://www.lauralippman.com/jan08.html “>this</a>. Good writing advice (by a good friend), followed by two examples of brevity’s charms.

Meanwhile, in the grand tradition of friend/good writer pimpage, I bring you <a href=”http://www.latimes.com/features/books/la-et-rutten11-2009mar11,0,7608003.story”>this</a>.

ETA: No post on brevity would be complete without <a href=”http://www.iambossy.com/”>this blog’s </a> weekly challenge.
