Let’s Begin…
Don’t take the easy route! Instead, use this little trick to improve your writing -- let go of the words “good” and “bad,” and push yourself to illustrate, elucidate and illuminate your world with language.
Brainstorm with your classmates other ways to improve your writing. Besides ineffective, bland terms, examine clichés that detract from your written efforts. Discuss ways you have seen these used and ways in which you would improve the expressions.
