If dangling, omit participles. In my opinion, I really think that an author in writing books, articles, or publications should definitely get in the habit of always endeavoring to try to help eliminate unneeded, redundant, and superfluous words, phrases, and sentences that are not really required to express fully for others his or her very own thoughts, concepts, feelings, ideas, or emotions simply, economically, and concisely. Strive assiduously to excise excess successive similar sibilant sounds, but also ban bunches of bilabials. Remember not to ever split infinitives. The passive voice is to be avoided, if the active voice can be used.
Mixed metaphors are pitfalls which are poison to effective writing.
Avoid using commas, which aren't necessary. 1 Avoid a not inconsiderable lack of clarity by omitting series of mutually cancelling logically negative expressions. Avoid spurious irregular verbs which have snuck into the written language. Avoid monotony by varying the beginning of successive sentences. Observe the cases of the pronouns you use.
