Words Fighting for Their Lives
As a writer sympathetic to other writers' devices for choosing the right words to best express themselves, a letter to the Public Editor in the New York Times (March 20th) caught my attention.
"Franklin Roosevelt said that it took him an hour to write a one-hour speech. A thirty minute version took him two hours. His most difficult task was to create something that could be delivered in two minutes...that took the better part of a day."
p.s. Not only do we need to find the right words, they also need to be in the right order!
