Actually

By writing a blog every day, you start to pick up on writing habits that you have. One I found was the word ‘actually’. This word actually has no meaning. I realised that if you take it out of any sentence, the meaning doesn’t actually change. I also try to make things as short as possible, and this rule of not having actually actually helps quite a lot. See?

ENJOYED THIS? HAVE MORE.
