Creative Writing Tip #9

writeitgay:

“You are not allowed  more than ‘two sighs’ per novel.”

This is a quote from my creative writing teacher. Personally, I think it’s a little too harsh, but I get the point. I try to limit the sighs as much as possible, because there really is such a thing as too many. 

Try something else instead; exhaled, breathed out, let our a breath, etc. Or simply go with body language.
