I feel like I’m chipping away garbage words in my writing like plaque scrapped from teeth. Often it’s been there so long you think its a part of you.
I’m making sentences shorter and clearer. Clarity is most important. If the reader can’t understand what you are trying to say, then what’s the point?
How can I make each sentence shorter, and clearer? How can I make each word necessary and impactful? The key is in short, solid sentences where every word has a clear purpose and nothing is wasted.
I feel like I’m improving, and it feels good!
If I didn’t have garbage words, I wouldn’t have any words at all
