As I further read "On Writing" by Stephen King, I have grown to appreciate his unique way of giving tips on improving one's writing skills without making "what-to-do" and "what-not-to-do" lists. Instead, he brilliantly showed the readers how he learned these tips himself through his own interesting life experiences.
One piece of advice that really stuck with me was that, perfect punctuation and perfect grammar is not always what a story or article call for. Something with a strong structure can always use a fragment or anything out of the ordinary to get a point across in an indirect or even spot on, in your face way.
