American wit Dorothy Parker said, regarding the book:
If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second-greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first-greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they're happy

I do want to write a book, but in the future only. 10 years from now when I'm 40.
For now I just want to write well, really well.

Read books, copy the style. Jack Reacher or something, something easy for low IQ entertainment. Persuader is pretty good.

The better question is why you would want to when you already have native proficiency in a superior tongue
