Ten Writing Commandments

I'm in a cliché sort of mood today and since I don't want to burden the novel I intend to work on this afternoon with clichés, I'm afraid I'm going to burden you with them instead. Behold, my Ten Writing Commandments, predictably humorously written in a crude approximation of 'King James English' and with helpful expositions of each rule.Most of these rules are as old as the hills and are probably familiar to you. I am not, for one second, claiming to have invented any of these rules. However, this is a compilation of ten writing precepts, from a variety of sources, that I have found to be particularly useful to me. I should add that the expositions I have included are all my own.
