WIP Challenge: Sunday (Day 25)

[psyco_chick32]

Good morning!  I'm psyco_chick32 and I'll be checking in with you guys as we wrap up this month's WIP challenge!!

How's everybody doing today?  Word Count?  *points to icon* Is this a common thought lately?  Let us know in the comments!!


Also, let's talk about Descriptive Writing.
"Substitute 'damn' every time you're inclined to write 'very'; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be." ~ Mark Twain.

Do you love adverbs and adjectives?  Do you make an effort not to use them?  Obviously, descriptors can add a lot of word padding when you're desperately trying to hit a goal (**cough** NANO **cough**) - is that a "trap" you've fallen into?

1.1K today with 2 finished story. Still procrastinating on the wip though.

I sometimes use descriptors instead of description. This's a weakness.

Congrats on finishing! I have to jump into my WIP(s), too - but we can do it!

Yes - description > descriptors.
