Full offense but your writing style is for you and nobody else. Use the words you want to use; play with language, experiment, use said, use adverbs, use “unrealistic” writing patterns, slap words you don’t even know are words on the page. Language is a sandbox and you, as the author, are at liberty to shape it however you wish. Build castles. Build a hovel. Build a mountain on a mountain or make a tiny cottage on a hill. Whatever it is you want to do. Write.

I don’t remember if i’ve reblogged this before… but it is still an important reminder

I once just typed out the non-word "soliloquized" in a book I'm writing and it was my favourite occurrence of making up a word

This is the absolute most terrifying thing ever! You're telling me that we don't know where black holes are until stars are torn apart by them! Damn nature you scary

my 11 year old sister was in class and they were reading a book and she rasied her hand and asked her teacher what a word meant and her teacher goes “seriously? you’re in the sixth grade and you don’t know what that means?”

petition to stop teachers from making students feel like they’re dumb

if a curious student should know something by 6th grade but they don’t it means a teacher didn’t do their job

I'm curious if the teacher actually knew what the word meant...it seems to me that she just made the kid feel stupid and never answered the question.
