Word Swap

During revision, writers make their writing clearer and better by swapping boring words with more interesting ones. In class, 701 started this process. All classes will do the same:
Highlight all verbs (action words) in your narratives.
Replace boring or overused words with more interesting ones (use a thesaurus - but make sure the definitions of the new words fit with what you are trying to say!).
Add adverbs (they modify or change the "feeling" of a verb) - for example "the car swiftly changed lanes."
