Great article, Erin. I don’t know if I can stop using exclamation points but I loved the article. I wish I could ask F. Scott Fitzgerald a question though. What’s wrong with laughing at your own joke? How good a joke can it be if it doesn’t make you laugh? (??)

I pinned this, and honestly, sadly, found it hard to not use an exclamation point at the end of any of my 3 descriptive sentences. Ugh… I whole heartedly agree with this, just like the word awesome no longer means “awesome”, which is unfortunate. I need to start working on less caps, exclamation points and use of the word awesome. Wish me luck! ;)
