Stilted. I never would have thought of my writing as stilted. Overblown, sure. Blustery, maybe. But stilted? I mean, I know I have a tendancy to just ramble on and on, and I use too many "big" words, and I have a problem with topics aside from my own unhappiness... but I always figured that it was at least genuine. Interesting and genuine.
To hear it's stilted is like getting a 6.5 on an intellectual hotornot.com. ow!
I'd feel better if I thought I could change it, but I don't really feel like that's how it is. Stilted, I mean. I think I do write this stuff for an audience. I know there are a good number of people, most of whom I know and more who I wish I did, who come here and read my jabbering. I have to be careful to not overshare, but also remain consistant to the theme of "open" Matt. It ain't easy.
Well, we'll see what comes.
