A column worth following …

 ROUGH DRAFTS: NOTES ON WRITING | The Daily Star.

In other words, a sentence tells a story not just in the way it's put together, but in the way it unfolds, including how it moves through time: where it speeds up or slows down, or pauses, or rises or falls in pitch, and so on. A good sentence performs its own meaning in the way that it unfolds.
Nausheen Eusuf is a fine poet and her thoughts on writing will be well worth following.
