"Good writers use lots of floqwet description!"

In hindsight? A lot of famous writers, including Jane Austen, never really used it. It's really a matter of taste. I DO think you need it to a point - I'm reading Pride and Prejudice now, and to be honest, there's scenes that are jarring because characters are just suddenly... there. No wonder it's a little harder to follow.

AYRT - Flowery. WTF. Sorry, new keyboard.

I actually thought this was a colloquial term for purple prose, lol.

I like this word. I'm going to try to make my writing floqwet.

What writing teacher has ever said that???

My writing teachers were always orgasming constantly about how Hemmingway was the greatest thing since shredded cheese and everyone must write exactly like him.

I meant "flowery," if that changes your comment, but all of my professors emphasized it.

Re: How did school lie to you?

[intrigueing]

No, I meant the exact opposite of flowery - my professors all acted like if a single sentence of your writing could possibly be construed as anything but the sparsest, beigest prose you could possibly crank out, you should kill it was fire, and adjectives were the spawn of satan.

NAYRT - Wow. Weird. I think that's the other extreme tbh.

I did have two literature professors who seemed very anti-discussion, and I always wondered if they were afraid of people digging for symbolism where there wasn't any. That's the closest I can think of.

Re: How did school lie to you?

[intrigueing]

That sounds really weird. Isn't discussion the whole point of studying literature? Otherwise it's just reading for fun.
