The sentence is the basis of any writing. How you form sentences and how they flow together not only reflect your skill and style as a writer, but also can be used to relay the general tone of your story (in descriptive writing) or a speaker's mood (in dialogue).

Nice post! I love fragments used in the right places, so it's good to see a grammar post that doesn't prescriptively advise against them, but just against their overuse (which is a handy measure to go by in most cases anyway).
