I read an article today. It
was witty, funny, crisp and very well written.
Reading that, I realized what
exactly it is that my articles have.
Length.
I always enlarge one theme
after another, striving to give an explanation when none is required. Every
sentence is linked to a para, every para to page, every page to an entry and so
on.
I think I do this because I
want everyone who reads it to get the story in exactly my point of view.
When
am I going to realize that the true beauty of a line lies in the multiple
meanings that one can derive?

Ambiguity is not beautiful, precision is. The art of good writing lies in conveying yourself with the minimum of words. Maybe you lack confidence in the general intelligence of the world, and so feel the need to expand on one theme too much :P
Ambiguity is not beautiful, precision is. The art of good writing lies in finding the minimum number of right words to express yourself. And also sometimes give credit to the reader's intelligence. You don't have to spell it all out like Tamil Cinema :P
Lol.. :P
This explanation sounds better ;)
