Hemingway, We Hardly Knew Ye (But, Nice App!)

Full disclosure: he isn't/wasn't my favorite author. But, he's one of those icons, right?

Hemingway House and Cats. There are always cats.And, gotta say - nice app!

The Hemingway App is designed to make us all better writers.
Banish adjectives!
Write declarative sentences!
Make a point!
Keep it short!
(And, presumably, don't overuse exclamation points.)

Well. Fiddlesticks. A post with two Wikipedia links. I've done all the damage I can for one day.

Harumph.

Writing that works emphasizes clarity, structure, and purpose for effective academic communication. The stressed areas are likely very familiar to nursing students looking for assistance with help with nursing assignments when accuracy and evidence are critical. The article promotes awareness of the audience's needs along with the need to revise. It also demonstrates that, as one improves upon their writing, they will become more confident as professionals and critical thinkers, in time and under the rigorous demands of healthcare education.
