Writing Tip: Illuminate What’s There

The best writing should be like the light in the desert. 

• Sharpness that verges on the hyperreal 
• Clarity in the relationship between foreground and background
• Wide perspective and intense focus on every nook and nuance of a topic
• No detail beyond what is vividly and presently there

Strive for these goals in the framing of a topic, the choice of detail, and the deliberate use of grammar and syntax. Just like the sun in the desert, only illuminate what’s there.
