Do not put statements in the negative form.
And don’t start sentences with a conjunction.
If you reread your work, you will find on rereading that a great deal of
repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing.
Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do.
The U.S. Army has a Department of Redundancy Department
Unqualified superlatives are the worst of all.
De-accession euphemisms.
If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is.
A preposition is something you should never end a sentence with. Unless you
have to.
Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.
Last, but not least, avoid run of the mill clichés like the plague.
