“It's not that you get a cliché and then wiggle it about or use synonyms. You don't take an ordinary decorative paragraph and give it style. What you're trying to do is be faithful to your perceptions and transmit them as faithfully as you can. I say these sentences until they sound right. There's no objective reason why they're right. They just sound right to me.” GivingWritingTryingReasonUseSoundStylePerceptionOrdinarySentencesObjectivesReason WhyFaithfulParagraphTransmitBeing FaithfulSynonym Author:Martin Amis
