Ernest Hemingway one remarked that the ultimate challenge of writing is to produce "one true sentence." If you can write one great sentence, you can write two, three, and more great sentences. If you can write many great sentences, line after line, you can master any writing project from a school paper to a published book.So: Can you craft “one true sentence,” again and again? Sentences and Paragraphs, by Charles Euchner, is the completely updated best-selling and most authoritative book available on the essential two units of writing. Building on the foundation of The Golden Rule of Writing, Charles Euchner shows you everything you need to write good sentences and paragraphs.Get it and use it. You will write better than ever––and spare yourself hundreds of hours of confusion and agony.Once you can write great sentences, then what?Strangely, few teachers or editors can even define a paragraph. And so paragraphs become a hodge-podge collection of ideas, some related and some not. But without a clear understanding of this basic unit of writing, we struggle to write well.The definition of a paragraph is actually quite simple: A paragraph is a cluster of sentences (usually) that states and develops just one idea. The development of this idea, ideally, takes the reader on a "journey" from one understanding of the world to another. Ideally, the paragraph "starts strong" and "finishes strong."This concise how-to guide shows you, with clear examples, how to:• Follow the Golden Rule for Sentences• Give Every Sentence an Action Packet• Make Every Sentence a Revolver• Use the Verbs To Be and To Have Sparingly• Make Some Sentences More Complicated• Alternate Short and Long Sentences• Follow the Golden Rule in Every Paragraph• ‘Climb the Arc’ in Most Paragraphs• Make Every Paragraph an “Idea Bucket”Sentences and Paragraphs includes vivid case studies of The New York Times coverage of national crises, Stephen Crane’s The Red Badge of Courage, Milan Kundera’s Slowness, Stanley Fish’s How to Write a Sentence<.i>, Ernest Hemingway’s journalism, James Van Tholen’s “Surprised By Death,” and Martin Luther King’s “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop.”Each chapter also includes exercises for you to put your new skills to work.About the AuthorCharles Euchner, an author and teacher, is the creator of The Elements of Writing.Euchner is the author of books on the presidency (Losing the Peace, forthcoming), civil rights (Nobody Turn Me Around), baseball (The Last Nine Inningsand Little League, Big Dreams), urban affairs (Urban Policy Reconsidered and Playing the Field), and other topics.A long time teacher—most recently at Columbia’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation—Euchner has taught writing at seminars to corporate and education clients as well as author groups.Euchner holds a B.A. from Vanderbilt University and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the Johns Hopkins University.
