Another option.

public class XmlCustomTextWriter : XmlTextWriter

    public XmlCustomTextWriter(TextWriter sink)
        : base(sink)
    {
        _tw = sink;
        Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
        Indentation = 0;
    }

    public void OutputElement(string name, string value)
    {
        WriteStartElement(name);
        string nl = _tw.NewLine;
        _tw.NewLine = "";
        WriteString(value);
        WriteFullEndElement();
        _tw.NewLine = nl;
    }
}
