ReplyDeleteGuess which story I used.
Well...Hmmm..? It couldn't be "Totem" could it? It's not like the main character's names are very big or anything.
ReplyDeleteHaha! That's exactly how mine turned out when I used piece from my novels. The character's names were always 5 times large than anything else.
One thing that WEbook always noticed and I am seeing a lot of, even in my own work, is that "just" is pretty big. Isn't strange how much we use that word without even thinking?
ReplyDeleteJust about. It's just such a common word that you just can't help but use it.
ReplyDeleteI find it ironic that the word "totem" is rather small in comparison.
Yeah, it can be quite common, but if you go back, you can eliminate most if not all of them.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, that is strange that totem would be small.
