Robert’s Reviews > Style: The Basics of Clarity and Grace > Status Update

This quote from the book reminds me of the Play Theory improv rule 'Look Outward': "What we write always seems clearer to us than it does to our readers, because we can read into it what we want readers to get out of it. And so instead of revising our writing to meet their needs, we send it off as soon as it meets ours." (pg. 5)

This is true in public speaking too: "You will write more clearly once you more clearly understand your subject and readers." (pg.4)
