Fiction Writing - Blog #6: Good Writing

Take a quick look at this:
http://grammar.about.com/od/yourwriting/a/characteristics.htm

Everything there are the concise general fundamentals of what would be considered "good" writing.  I whole-heartedly agree with the proposition that good writing is writing that responds to the interests and needs of the readers.  When you write, you're trying to do so much more than just show the world how good your grammar and spelling is.  You're trying to stir up something that is much deeper within your readers when you present your work to them.  When your readers are done reading your work, you want them to be different after they've read it from before they ever set eyes on it.
