I'm writing an article about religious life for the local Catholic newspaper. I just ended every sentence in the first paragraph with an exclamation point. The vocation director in me is excited...the editor in me is horrified.

In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!
Not sure it’d be comfortable, but this chair is beautiful! πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ“šπŸ“š #writing #reading #amwriting #bookworm #writerslife #books #furniture writingexplained.org

How Do You Move A Bookstore? With A Human Chain, Book By Book

Note to writers: "Amazing" is very tired. "Amazing" needs a long vacation. Therefore, please don't write about your amazing party, your amazing girlfriend's amazing dress, or your amazing vacation. Something more pungent & specific, please.
