And, that's good news for those of us who want another person to hear us, to understand us. Short words are easy to read, easy to grasp, easy to recall: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…. (A Tale of Two Cities) Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.

Can you say more with less? If you use short, simple words, will what you write turn out so real and so clear that your reader will taste it, see it, hear it, touch it, smell it...live it? Or will it sound like The Cat in the Hat or Dick and Jane? The truth is, short words bring power to what you say. And, that's good news for those of us who want another person to hear us, to understand us. Short words are easy to read, easy to grasp, easy to recall: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…. (A Tale of Two Cities) Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again. (Rebecca) If music be the food of love, play on. (The Twelfth Night) Marley was dead, to begin with. (A Christmas Carol) Play it, Sam. Play "As Time Goes By." (Casablanca) If you build it, they will come. (Field of Dreams) These are the times that try men's souls. (Paine) To be or not to be… (Shakespeare) What's done is done. Seize the day! I love you. And so it goes. In this book, the second in the Short and Sweet series, you'll find a collection of fiction and non-fiction on a variety of topics. They have two things in common: Each is about something that matters deeply to the writer, and with few exceptions - proper names, numbers - each is written using only one-syllable words or words of fewer than six letters. If you've always thought you had to use long words to keep your reader engaged, discover why it's often a great idea to keep it Short and Sweet.
