  • Retiring very, single strong words like enormous, exhausted and furious
  • Word strength ladders, irritated to annoyed to angry to furious
  • Don't make me guess, giving a listener enough detail
  • Precise verbs for went, said, looked and walked

  • Make me see it, hear it and feel it, describing with imagery
  • Naming the exact emotion instead of happy, sad or bad
  • One word changes everything, tone and word choice
