Simplicity

Poor Faulkner. Does he really think big emotions come from big words? He thinks I don't know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use.

-Ernest Hemingway

Ouch!

OK, I'll try, I'll try really really my best to keep it simple the next time I write. (Which better be soon, the constant itch to write seems to have been replaced by a stagnant lull. Is it the lack of motivation, or just a lack of anything to write about? I doubt if life is getting sensational anytime soon, so I need to find objects of composition in the available 360- degrees; I mean visibility. How can I motivate self to write? Suggestions?)
