Writing is easy. Good writing is hard. What sounds great in our head can come off as bloated drivel to someone else. Now, the free web app Hemingway can help improve your writing skills. The Hemingway app doesn’t pretend to be a literary benchmark. It just points out some common pitfalls, which lower the quality of our writing when overused. Adverbs are far from worthless in prose. A well-placed adverb can and will help a sentence, or even change its whole meaning. It will highlight the words and phrases you should reconsider, for bold, clear writing.
