RE: Who Do I Follow on Steem & Why

in #steemimpact5 years ago

Hi Chinny.

Thanks for the mention :)

I remember those halcyon days of Promo-mentors and the 2017 bull run! Although I have to admit doing all the extra curricular activity (stuff other than writing posts) did see me burn out pretty badly, I was always really pleased that I got to help out many folks with the creative writing workshops :)

Raj opened my eyes and helped mea lot in my writing journey. The most significant is the use of double adjectives.

That is so gratifying to hear... and yes... watch out for the over-use of adjectives and adverbs. Over use of adverbs in particular are the major culprit in limiting the impact and flow of fiction.

I always put fiction that I'm submitting to literary anthologies through Hemingway editor and grammarly just to be sure to catch those instances where I commit the cardinal sins of repeated words and frequent adverb use.

I'm so glad that I effected your writers journey so positively, and thank you once again for these kind words :)

Much love xx

I'm glad too. I use grammarly but only when I'm doing some serious writing. I think I would probably make it a constant things. It helps.

Thank you for all that you do.
