revising:
- character as subjects, actions as verbs
- old before new (connect sentences’ subjects from tail to head)
- short before long: (say the short phrase before the long phrase, move the verb up front if you can)
- topic then stress (the last position is being stressed—the thing that’s most important to communicate is the end of an utterance)
- The above principles apply to all units—as in, each sentences paragraphs, and arguments should all follow a similar principles
