To be unfair, a lot of readers think pretty much the same way. They're engaging with prose as a carrier wave for stories and ideas, but actually don't care about wordcraft.

It's why people spread those Tumblr story concepts but won't actually buy the book.

I had to pause after every sentence to re-read and savor every individual word in a way I haven't in a very long time. I laughed, I cried, it moved me. This is the most inept wordcraft I've ever had the displeasure to experience. This is what having a nervous breakdown must feel like.

when the full Olivia Nuzzi book streets Bluesky is going to collectively experience something akin to the ecstasies of the Bacchae
Like all men but more so, he was a hunter. In a literal sense, he used not a bullet but a bird. It was not about a chase but about a puzzle of logic and skill that amounted to a test of his self-mastery. He was the mouse and the architect of his maze. The giver of his own pleasure and torment. He desired. He desired desiring. He desired being desired. He desired desire itself. I understood this just as I came to understand the range of his kinks and complexes and how they fit within what I thought I understood of his soul.

They really are. Especially for century-old pulp adventure, Howard's tales retain their magic. His best work was so far beyond his contemporaries he might as well have been writing in a different language. Even now, his wordcraft and atmosphere rumble bleak poetry.

Swamplandia! by Karen Russell. She's an absolute wizard when it comes to wordcraft.

Many thanks! *Bows graciously*
I find that stringing together poems out of haiku does contribute to the honing of such wordcraft.

The Kusoge Advent Calender is one of the best things the FGC has produced, but I don't think AJ gets nearly enough credit for being one of the best writers in the scene. The write ups are even better than the streams imo, he has a fantastic way of making fucking BULLSHIT into wordcraft

this paragraph about Berserker from the writeup will always, always stick with me, especially the "Yipes commentating entirely through a Speak & Spell" line
Also, the entire time you’re getting zoned by this gigantic anthro tractor, you’re forced to listen to him pop off like Yipes commentating entirely through a Speak & Spell. He never, ever, ever shuts the fuck up. Like, imagine Regirock and Lord Zedd had a kid who was really into Hot Wheels.

A flawed character’s desperate, clumsy repairs remind us of our own patched-together hearts.

Always ply your wordcraft! May this year bring you words and poetry!

I felt the actual wordcraft in Fahrenheit 451 in particular -- word choice, sentence structure, etc -- was very clunky.

Absolutely gorgeous, Steff. The photos, the wordcraft, the heartfulness of it.

And now I know a bit more about where you get your "explainy" personality from. You're definitely your father's daughter. ❤️

I've read Cat Chaser and La Brava - both excellent. CC has some really great sex writing, the kind of delicate wordcraft that almost no other writers can manage.

As a self-introspective writer working on their wordcraft, I must say that if I have to tell myself, "Show, not tell," one more time, the main character is going to get it [where they squirm like an injured worm who knows they will never have the chance to tell Robin how much they truly loved them]!
