so i received critiques on my first collection of poetry and honestly, it wasn't that bad. i was expecting to be torn apart, but i wasn't. i'm so excited and already can't wait to continue work!
being a writer and english major i've come to hate the word juxtaposition. it makes me cringe. whenever i'm in a group of writers/ english majors/ faux philopshers that word comes up about 601 times. i only mention this because as i was anticipating some of the comments about my work i was guessing what each person in my group would say, you know, their trademark comment. without fail, the one guy i pegged for saying "juxtaposition" wrote that word in his critique.ugh!
other words i hate:
literally (it's so misused among my generation)
moist
recession
phrase-in this economy
deposit (a job thing)
what are some words that you hate?

I do have words I hate like:
swagger...what is it exactly?
scary...when they mean to say afraid,
haters
and anything that comes out of Rachel Ray's mouth...like evo, like saying olive oil is so hard
...I hate deposit also
