I found this fairly awkward to read. Possibly that was the point, in which case it was well made. Otherwise, I would consider the author to be demonstrably unqualified to offer advice on writing style.

Fixed, because your comment on quality does not convince me with its quality.

edit: See how that slightly changed the meaning to be more clear, but perhaps not what you meant? And awkward looks arkward.
