How can i make this sentence shorter, and more descriptive?
Only moments ago Renae was straining to carry the heavy fuel can from her decrepit shed, past last night's bon fire remains, and towards her motorbike- which was supported by one of the many lively Eucalyptus trees in her yard. (Not really shorter, but it's no longer a run-on... lol)
How rewrite this sentence with a more descriptive verb: "I worked as a supervisor of three team members."?
1) "During my time with SoandSo Corporation, I successfully supervised a small team within the Blank Department." 2) *I would remove the business about Lotus. Stress your strong points, don't point out your short-comings. Try something like: "I am well-versed in utilizing various spreadsheet programs." Somewhere in there, mention that you are computer-savvy and a quick learner. That way, when it comes up in your interview, you have already made mention of your positive abilities and can easily transition into any program they may be using. The trick is to get in their door for an interview--sell yourself in your cover letter. When you are sitting across from them is the time to address their particular requirements and confidently assure them you are the perfect person for their organization. Don't forget to be brief, but dynamic. Recruiters spend only seconds glancing at a cover letter. If you mention what you can't do, it will go in the trash before they even look at your resume. Good luck!
How can one turn short and boring sentences into creative ones?
Think out of the box. While fishing is such a delightful past time to those who enjoy the hobby, the mere mention of the word for many can be quite boring. But turn it into something the reader will never expect. Something like:"Nothing beats the fun out of fishing for idiots who can't find their car in the parking lot."or"I get my kick watching the CCTV and fishing for unwary shoplifters in the toy section."Indeed, fishing is not just for fish. But if you really mean the sport, then you can be more specific, more sensual (ambient, picturesque, visual), and be more creative in expressing what you like. You see the word "like" is quite weak and trite. Be more passionate. Just a little. Something like:"I just can't get enough fishing for rainbow trout on Big Bear Lake in the summer." or"That very moment I caught a rainbow trout with my new fishing rod was just priceless." The sentences create better imagery. Without saying it, they establish what you like without a doubt. If you're not really writing from experience, just be sure there are indeed rainbow trouts in Big Bear Lake during the summer. (Of course, there are.)

How can I word my sentences clearer?
Use short sentences. If they get too long, rewrite them. Use punctuation. Remove words that don’t enhance the message. Restructure the sentences, and put what is important first. Here is an example:You know it can be kind of hard writing since one can be tempted to write in the same style as one speaks, but since coming about as an easily understood writer is important to me (after all communication is key isn’t it), I have lately decided to sign up for a writing course at menwithpens.com.Remove words from that sentence, until the essence is left:It’s hard to write. I am tempted to write as I speak. It’s important for me to be understood. I have signed up for a writing course at menwithpens.com.The meaning is still the same. It took fewer words to communicate the same message. It’s boring. Let's make it better.I want to be a better writer. How else can you understand me? I have decided to sign up for a writing course.I removed the commercial for menwithpens. The sentence wasn’t about where to take a course. It was about being a better writer. You probably don’t care if I write as I speak. So away with that. If you wan’t a zen like writing style you can make it even shorter.I want to be a better writer. So you understand me. I am taking a writing course.Using fewer words does remove context. Try to compare this last sentence, with the first. They are not identical. The first is very verbose, but does it reveal more? The later is terse, does it reveal less?When you write ask yourself: What can I remove? How can I make it shorter?When I am in a hurry writing emails, I sometimes end them with: “Sorry for making it long, I didn’t have time to make it short”. I stole that from someone. I can’t remember who.I recommend using writing tools. Grammarly have a performance tool. I ran this piece through Grammarly. 80 is ok, but there is room for improvement. The Hemingway Editor can help as well. It’s free, online and gives good advice.Happy writing
