writing tip #21
Spend 5 minutes writing about your last vacation or exciting event. Try to picture yourself basking in the sun or reeling in a trout. Describe each detail with specific words. Example: With her checkbook clutched in one hand, Donna handed the Realtor a down payment for the charming Tudor-styled home tucked in the cul-de-sac.
writing tip #31
Avoid fancy or flowery language and jargon. Replace such words with strong verbs that paint a vivid image in the reader's mind.
