tips to make your prose sound better
...without making it sound flowery.
As writers, a big struggle is trying to make prose pretty without making the mistake of making it âfloweryâ, or overly poetic and very unfitting with the words around it. Iâm in no place to give advice about making writing poetic, but here are some tips for making it sound better!
1) Donât use passive voice.
If youâre a newer writer or not that into technical stuff, you might be very confused, but passive voice is when an object is effected by something rather than something affecting the object. For example, âThe ball was hit by the catâ is in passive voice while âThe cat hit the ballâ is active voice.Â
Why should you avoid passive voice? It adds more words than necessary, it takes the focus away from the person doing the action, and it slows pacing. The only time it would be better to use is when the subject is the main focus of a scene.Â
For example, if someone is being manhandled in a horror scene, maybe, you could say âHer arm was pulled by the manâ instead of âThe man pulled her armââ, but I personally try to never use passive voice.
2) Donât use past perfect tense.
This is another nit-picky thing that only writers care about, but it does make a difference. Just because an average reader doesnât know what past perfect is doesnât mean they wonât realize the writing is off.
Past perfect is when you say âI had saidâ instead of âI saidâ. It adds an unnecessary amount of extra words if you do it throughout the story. It doesnât change the meaning of a sentence and it just adds clutter or âfluffâ to the story that does not need to be there. Itâs very small, but try to compare your manuscript that uses past perfect versus not using it. It sounds cleaner, flows better, and keeps pacing steady.
3) Use the same tense throughout a story.
Yet again, average readers wonât notice this, but they can notice when something is odd. If you start a story in past tense, donât switch to present tense halfway through. If you start a story in present tense but the second paragraph is past tense (and it isnât a flashback or retelling anything), then itâs inconsistent. It doesnât flow as nicely as writing in the same tense.
Of course, as all things in creative writing, this does have exceptions. If youâre writing a flashback or telling backstory, it should be in past tense, even if your story as a whole isnât, but in general scene prose, donât.Â
An example of what not to do is, âShe says âhiâ to him. He said âhiâ back.â
4) Donât info-dump.
This is an obvious one, of course. Info-dumping is when an author tells the entire backstory in normal chapter prose instead of using a prologue or letting it come up organically.
Info-dumping is seen as bad in the writing community, and thereâs a reason for that. Not only is it hard to retain information when you hear it all at one, but it also slows pacing and adds fluff. Just... donât.
5) Avoid -ing verbs.
This is a technical thing and one I havenât seen talked about. I saw it in a ShealinWrites video on YouTube, and since then Iâve avoided them and my writing has sounded so much better.
Since this isnât something I came up with, I donât know exactly why this sounds so bad, but it does.
Of course, you have to use -ing verbs sometimes, but use them less than verbs ending in âsâ.
For example, âShe walks into the room and says, âBlahblahâ.â sounds nicer than â âBlahblah,â She says, walking into the room.â
It actually doesnât sound too bad typing it out once, but when you use -ing verbs, it leads to the use of them more and more. The build-up of them sounds ugly.
6) Avoid long, uncommon, difficult words.
A lot of young writers make this mistake. When I first started writing, I did this a lot. I would use big words to try to sound more mature or advanced, but this is a bad idea. If a reader sees a word they havenât seen before, it will take them out of the story for a minute. One of my biggest pet-peeves is when Iâm reading and I see a word I havenât seen and have to Google. You lose that immersion.
Of course, some words are good and better than simple words, but you shouldnât be using lists of âTop 10 Pretty Words You Never Heardâ or a thesaurus for every adjective.
7) Donât try to sound poetic in uncalled for situations.
Of course, sometimes itâs good to try to make your writing sound nice, but donât do it when it doesnât make sense for the scene.
If youâre writing slasher horror and in the middle of a violent axe murder you describe the blood as âred as a rose under moonlightâ, then Iâll set the book down and leave. If youâre writing a love story where the characters kiss for the first time, describe it as magical and poetic and beautiful, but only do it when the situation is right.
You can use poetic metaphors and figurative language in romantic, nostalgic, or emotional scenes, but avoid it in day-to-day life, angry, or dark moments.
8) Use simple verbs.
This is closely related to number six, but whatever. If thereâs a situation where a simple verb describes an action better, then use it! Donât go out of your way to use bigger words.
One thing I see a lot, from young writers especially, is using long sadisms and dialogue tags. Instead of using âdeadpannedâ (which Iâve had to leave the story to Google multiple times in my life), just say âsaidâ or âjokedâ. Add an adverb if necessary. You can mess up the readerâs immersion by using incomprehensible words.
Thanks for reading! Hopefully I could help! If you have anything to add, feel free to reblog with your tips, and if I helped Iâd really appreciate a like/reblog/follow! If you have any other writing questions, my asks are always open!! Iâve been a fiction writer for almost nine years, Iâm a creative writing student, and Iâve written in almost every genre there is.Â
Thanks again!Â
