      A weakness of novice writers – and also pot-boiler novelists with million-dollar publishing deals – is to use dialogue to divulge information. This is sometimes referred to as being expositional or explicatory. It is when characters tell the reader w

      Writing In Rhythm

      Jun 19, 2019

      Often when people talk about “the music of language” they make it sound like a mere frill, something we add to “dress up” plain writing. I don’t agree with this view. At the heart of language, I hear music—word-music, akin in many ways to instrumenta

      I like this book because it uses actual photographs of the ambulances and paramedics and what they do. It doesn't use illustrations that could be inaccurate. For example when they are introducing medical equipment and stretchers they use a picture of a stretcher in the back of an ambulance not an illustration.Another reason I like this book is because it uses short sentences that get straight to the point. For example on page 6 it says, "an ambulance has flashing lights and a siren." The sentences are easy to comprehend and make the difficult task of explaining something complex seem easy.The main idea in this book is to be informative about ambulances.
