I think you’re both making good points in this thread. I’m writing a non-fiction book in my spare time, and I’ve had to face the fact that my default get-words-on-the-page is extremely flowery.

Would it be possible for you share an example of your prose that received this criticism?

Very interesting, thanks for sharing.
