Unlike "The Art Of Computer Programming" by D E Knuth This Article is totally useless & senseless. Here I am going to express my views on good writing.
Good writing by definition may be something like, the one which pleases the readers & conveys its message correctly. You need three things to make your writing good & interesting. First is IDEA, second is deep understanding of that idea & third is Appropiate words to express your idea.
In order to get worthy ideas for writing, you should read as much as you can (that need to be good too). Then you should be able to catch the ideas which you think you understand in depth & you want to convey them to others. But this is not always true. Because some exceptions are always allowed & sometims you can get the ideas in bathroom, in dreams or may be all of a sudden.
Once you have the idea with you, think over it to shape it in a way you want to intimate it to others. Because it is the presentation not the idea that will enforce reader to take interest in your article. Presentation should be simple & straight forward considering the fact that readers can be of varing background & knowledge. You can learn this from others, by minutely observing their way.
Third & the most significant part of any writing is words selection. Some readers get boared when they see repeating lines, recurring words & out of context examples & This situation can be avoided by chosing the appropiate word for that context. More important is that consistancy should be maintained in terms of difficulty level of words being used. Try to avoid uncommon words & phases.
But frankly speaking it is very hard to learn something like this by mere reading. Our writing skill depends upon the circumstances/society we live, the people we talk. So the only way to produce effective writing is to keep on writing your thoughts & learm from your own mistakes.
