I put a lot of energy into restraining myself from Whitmanian refrains, which are like long biblical lists, and endless parades of adjectives and other qualifiers. Now even when I write longer sentences with lots of description people still tell me the style feels simple, and I can't disguise it well. Oh well, it's not the worst thing.
I always wonder how you write so well in English as a second language. Does it make your style more careful?
