45 Says To Avoid Using Very
I just came across an article from Stumble upon regarding the over use of the word very. It is very interesting.
This is something I need to work on myself. It seems that no matter what the subject matter the word "very" comes up. Sometimes I am very tired. No....sometimes I am exhausted. Some things are very..... You get my drift. I think that reading the article might help all of us to write better. Have a good evening my friends.
