My Words… My Way…

Save the fancy talk… for someone who cares…

I’ve been thinking about the way I write…
People probably know by now that I don’t use big.. fancy words.. It’s not because I can’t… I just don’t feel right doing it.. That’s not how I talk in real life — so why would I try to sound that way on the page?

And even though I don’t use fancy words in my stories… I still love words.. All of them.. Simple ones… complex ones… everything in between.. I’m always growing my vocabulary — I just don’t force it into my storytelling..
And who knows… maybe once in awhile I’ll go all out — and try to impress you… haha..

When I tell a story… my story… I want the feel to be like I’m right there with you…
Just talking… just being me.. If I start dressing it up with words I’d never say out loud — then it’s not my story anymore… it turns into something else.

So I keep it simple…
I keep it honest…
I keep it the way it comes out of my mouth…

And maybe one day I’ll throw in a “fancy” word or two just to mess with you…
but it’ll be rare…
and you’ll know it when you see it…

Because I’m after your heart…
not your applause…

I’m not randomly doing things here… things are done purposely…
I have a plan…
and you are the most important part of it…

(Ps.. I also don’t like commas or single periods. 😁)

  1. I learn that simple is not stupid, same as how we express our stories most simply. Besides, not all readers are native English speakers. We can easily connect with simple words. I agree. I found you by Jam’s recommendation.

  2. I love your style. I’m reading this and cheering you on saying “no…you use your words” as if you were right here. Telling our stories in our own voice is true storytelling.
    So happy I found your blog!
    Happy Thanksgiving! 😁
