What Is Your Definition of Bad Writing?
Jerry Nelson

Too much unnecessary detail. As if every word coming off the keyboard is gold.
The other side of the same coin, is when an author goes on and on about some lost love or life event of which the reader is unaware. Reading some of the poetry on this site, I am often left wondering if the writer is talking about a lover or lost pet. I just hope it is not one in the same.
Finally, I am annoyed with the overuse of F-word. It is a powerful word and should be used sparingly. Most folks toss it about like a lost comma.
