Words You Don't Know

from How to Write Good · host Daniel Poppie

Yesterday, we talked about words that we didn't like to use. Each writer has words he dislikes, but sometimes those words are exactly what is needed. As writers, it can also be tempting to use words that mean a very specific thing. Now, I am not opposed to this at certain times, especially if the writer uses this words naturally in speech, but big words can be something that obscures rather than clarifies for the reader.My Book: https://amzn.to/31UcCPgMy Newsletter:danielpoppie.com/newsletterMy Website:www.danielpoppie.com HTWG Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/howtowritegoodHTWG Twitter: https://twitter.com/danielpoppieHTWG Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielpoppieOne Last Toast for Ebenezer Fleet:https://www.spreaker.com/show/one-last-toast-for-ebenezer-fleet
