Unsure how many fellow Spanglish scientists share this space, but the term moiety/ies sounds so much to me like mollejas (Spanish for chicken gizzards) #wordchoice
Today, we celebrate #NationalThesaurusDay and honor Peter Mark Roget, author of Roget’s Thesaurus. Roget collected and organized lists of words for decades, and in 1852, he published his complete categorization and organization of each word by meaning.

I dont think covering it up is the right word. They know they are lying and they know we know they are lying. They are saying we a dictatorship now and we can do and say what we want.

Dearest Wonderful Literary Agents,
I am begging you to stop using the words “NOT (A) PERFECT” in your rejection messages.
Nothing is perfect, but that word conveys meaning you may not intend.
We live in a world of words. Get creative!

Writing Tip: Hunt for "adverb + verb" combinations. Often, you can replace them with one stronger, more precise verb. It makes your writing more vivid and immediate.
Example: Instead of "He closed the door angrily," try "He slammed the door."

Vague words like "thing" and "stuff" weaken your prose. Be precise! Instead of "a weird thing happened," describe exactly what it was. 🎯 #WordChoice #StrongerProse #EditingTips #AmWriting #DesertMysticEditing

So apparently I NEVER use the word 'somebody'. I always use 'someone' instead. (At least this is true in the first draft of Melody. I didn't open Harmony to check it.)
Is this a common thing? A regional one? If it's regional, which region did I pick it up in?

My favorite grammar suggestion I've received was for the word "quiffing"
No, Grammarly, I do not want to replace it with "queefing"

To paraphrase Twain: "Almost right word vs. right word? Lightning bug vs. lightning." 😂 He nailed it. Tiny glow vs. raw power. That's my writer's struggle. Do i need that raw power? Or the tiny glow here? "Almost" gets me close, but "right" hits like thunder. #amwritingfantasy #writing #wordchoice
