Reflection
梳理一下本书第三章 Forms结构吧。
第一章Principles和第二章Methods是原则和方法
例如：怎样把文章写的简洁，怎样形成自己的风格，为谁而写......
如何用词，如何写出好的开头和结尾......
而到了第三章就是谈具体写作的各种形式和实践了，作者在谈的过程中穿插了很多值得学习的例子，当然偶尔也会有些反面教材的例子。
其实谈来谈去最终都会谈到第一章和第二章的原则和方法，毕竟这是一个好的写作的充分条件。
文学的非虚拟写作：对多数学习写作的人来说，最惬意的路径就是非虚拟写作。叙事的非虚构写作指导书还是很多的，像《华尔街日报是如何讲故事的》，《哈佛非虚构写作课》等等。
作者又分了写人：访谈，写地点：游记，写自己：回忆录
这几章提到的很多什么风格要精心选词，内容要保证每个细节是有效的。就是前两章clarity, simplicity, brevity and humanity的具体的运用嘛。
后面也是一样，不管是科技，商务，体育，艺术，写作中的原则都是不变的，变的只是形式。
科技写作Another way of making science accessible is to write like a person and not like a scientist. 商务写作The way to warm up any institution is to locate the missing “I.”等等
所说的不都是抛下脑海中各种形式：科学家，工作，体育作家，艺术家等专业人士的限制，让自己write like a person，being yourself.——humanity
当然语言上也是一样，谈了很多，最后都是clarity, simplicity, brevity......
至于最后一节专门讲的幽默，则是一个好的写作的润滑剂，各种形式的写作都可以运用。可以避免枯燥，达到clarity，humanity的效果呢。毕竟，人人都讨厌说教，而喜欢有趣的东西。有时候幽默还能寓教于乐呢。
当然作者写的很细致，举了大量的例子描如何按上面的类别来写作，以及注意事项或原则。要仔细思考运用的话，最好多看第一章Principles和第二章Methods，再结合第三章 Forms去看去实践，更有意思。
最后：根据自己需要，多写作练习多修改吧。
