Special Post for Creative Writers #1 - Save Time Searching for the Right Word - I've Done the Work! Alternatives to Go, Went, Walk
(Images source: Pavilions Teignmouth)
In this series of articles I want to share some helpful posts for creative writers.
I am a primary school teacher and adult trainer. I am qualified to teach English Literature and Creative Writing in the UK.
Vocabulary is so important to creative writers that I've made some resources to help anyone who would like to save time.
The first one is:
"Words You Could Use to replace 'go', 'went' or 'walk'".
Here is an example: I went through the quiet park to the lake. I sauntered through the quiet park to the lake.
So here we go with the first set of words:

I will post the next set tomorrow if this article is read by anyone.
Thank you for viewing!
Hi. I've just upvoted you on steemfollowers - not sure how it works really, just joined it tonight! But I thought I'd just drop by to comment. I think this is a really good idea. its been a long time since I've written, and having read something I wrote 30 years ago I was shocked to see how much vocabulary I seem to have forgotten! It comes from spending most of my time with sheep and chicken I think. Friendly souls but such poor conversationalists... Just noticed you are an embroiderer too, so I need to follow...
Thank you @elaine54! Your response means that I'll continue with the series :) It's quite a lot of work to compile the words. I keep thinking of more words, he he. Also I wanted to present it clearly and Markdown didn't really cut the mustard.
Sheep might be good companions for a creative writer but certainly not chickens :)
Steemfollowers is great for accumulating upvotes. The value of them is low though. It's free money so can't be bad.
I know what you mean about rereading past work. It's as if someone else wrote it.
I see there were 7 views here so far but 30 upvotes. Out of all those, only you commented. So, lastly, thanks so much for actually reading my post and commenting. That makes me very happy!
