Yikes. Yes like war. But with the trappings of logic, or at least a nest of wily syllogisms. Dick, I taught English too, so very long ago In fact it affects my legal writing. I get ciceronian. Long sentences, many clauses, even though I try to practice senecan simplicity. I think it's probably something about being a romantic trying to be classical. Or try a girl who never grew up even though many decades slipped by. Thanks, friend. :) Linda.
Please help be me journalistic.
I'm really interested in what/how you are teaching, do you maybe have a website? And sure I will shoot the material over to you, it is the 'voice' that's giving jme trouble that's for sure. Best regards, :) Linda.
