Another day has come and gone, so now it's time to check in. \o/

Photobucket

How many new words did you write today? Did you reach your goal? Were you editing instead? Researching? Or was today a day of rest?

...and today's discussion topic:

Purple prose: many fandom writers have gone there before, either by rookie mistake or by simply not knowing better. Have you ever written anything purple? Please feel free to share any advice you might have on avoiding this for any newbies out there (and feel free to share your own purple prose too, if you want!).

I only write 300 words today. And not on my current wips. But at least they are words.

Like the above poster, I think I often go in the opposite of not enough description. If I did purple prose, I need an outside eye to point it out.
