This was excellent! Loved the use of imagery and literary devices in explaining to people why they should use imagery and literary devices - a real "practice what you preach" moment. This post seemed to be mostly geared towards professional/persuasive writing; I would love to read about how these rules may come into play for creative writing and blogging. Keep up the great work!

Thank you, I was the reading 'The picture of Dorian Gray' by Oscar Wilde and there you would see a lot of writing like the devil angle come into creative writing. The book legit shows how one can be influenced by words and give away their power.

Insightful as always! Life-changing, even — I will be thinking about these concepts every time I write. Looking forward to revisiting from time to time.

Thank you for always being so kind! If you ever need a partner in crime to come up with some devil writing. You know who to call:)
