Use “get” instead of “procure”. Write short sentences and short paragraphs.

Use “transition” words and phrases to make your writing flow smoothly. Do you notice how I use transition words and phrases such as the following:

Well, as a matter of fact, I first blah…

Now, naturally, we don’t want to blah, blah…

And, of course, here is what she said blah, blah, blah…

And so on. God I love to write “And so on“. Kurt Vonnegut uses it quite often and he’s one of the best writers I’ve read.

To keep the flow going:

Onward.
