” … THANKFULLY, THERE’S GRAMMARLY!”
Oh. My. Goodness. Do you want to know how not to write? When a bunch of algorithms tell you your sentences run or you’re using PASSIVE VOICE. OH NO. Passive voice. I should write an entire book in “passive voice” just to prove my point. GOOD writing – the kind that sometimes spills out of you (if you’re a lucky ducky!) and rarely follows mandates or dictates or any sort of must-be-like-this-ates – is the articulation of memory in every sense of the word; remembering every sense by utilizing strings of words that BEST REPRESENT VERY SPECIFIC AND VERY VAGUE IDEAS … and making the images such words conjure in the minds of readers magically elicit the actual FEELING of universal feelings, experiences, and values (the “collective consciousness,” if you will) all within a completely intangible non-spatiotemporal “place.”
“My mother is a fish.”
Okay, so that’s not a poorly written sentence. But I think you get my idea. I just had to vent with all these ads … it surely seems like Grammarly is not hurting for business, at any rate!
Sweet dreams, lovies.
❤ Always, Beth
