“Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.”
―William Strunk Jr. & E. B. White
From “The Elements of Style” (1959 Macmillan)

I generally cleave to the advice from Strunk & White's The Elements of Style when it comes to avoiding the passive voice, except when I'm asked what happened to the last piece of cake.
"It became eaten, somehow."

Whatcha Reading September 2026
Happy Wednesday, Geekly Gang! Kyra Kyle here, and today, our writers share what they've been reading over the past month. Feel free to share what you've been reading, because we're all part of the Geekly Gang. I'll kick off this post by sharing what I've been reading over the past month. Kyra's Fiction First off, I like how Marvel Comics has adopted DC Comics' Compact Graphic Novel format. Yay! These volumes fit much nicer on the shelf, they pack a lot of story in smaller space, and they're cheaper than full-size graphic novels.
