Bored with your own writing?

When you are writing, are you ever searching for a word? Ever get stuck on how to describe something? Looking for a new way to express emotion? If you say yes to any of these questions, then this is the book you need on your reference shelf. I turn to it all the time when I need a fresh way to express myself. I write mostly crime fiction and some historical non-fiction, and sometimes I feel stuck. Don’t we all? The lists and suggestions in this book open my imagination up to move beyond the same old way of expressing sentiments, images, or actions in a scene. This book enables me to incorporate some diversity into my writing. It presents words and phrases I never would have thought of on my own.
