I can write fairly well, but it takes so much time and energy. How do I become more confident and efficient with my writing? That’s what I’m curious about.

- maroonblazer 4y agoGood writing, like anything worth pursuing to a certain level of quality, takes practice. Lots and lots of practice. Pascal, in a letter, famously wrote something along the lines of "I have made this longer than usual because I have not had time to make it shorter." More practically, I think Pinker offers great advice in his "The Sense of Style". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sense_of_Style https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sense_of_Style
