Is your writing colorful?

This is a double meaning question! In the literal way, when I am writing or commenting at work I like to use different colors. It helps me group the comments and it's easier for the team to follow. In that way, my writing is very colorful!
In the metaphorical way, I think my writing isn't as colorful. Some people have the talent to make their writing lively and fresh and interesting.

I don't know how to describe my writing. Sometimes I use figurative speech when I am in the mood and at other times I am just straightforward so it is easy to understand.

@Alexandoy Yes professional writers are great with it, for the rest of us it's not that easy I guess.

@besweet for professional writers especially the literary writers that I know, they are good with the colorful language.

Can't say about the metamorphical way. I think others would be judge for that. But my notebook is a colorful one. I use colors to highlight.

I enjoy using colors also! There is another colleagu at work who is doing the same and it's so fun when I have the chance to work with her.
Are you categorizing your notes by color or you just like to write with different inks and highlighters?

I think my way of presenting things is more colourful than the way I write. That is why I don't really like to write down my thoughts when I know a documentary will be made or somebody comes to interview me about a certain theme. The first interview I have given was the worst and also because I have written down my ideas.

@besweet I don't think my laptop supports such an app.
Presenting something is much more than just the words, it is much more than that. And it can be adjusted according to the feedback you instantly give. So, I don't know if it can be transcribed.
I was the same as you, probably even worse. But I have overcome this problem.

That's a very interesting point! Did you try the voice text app for your posts here? I found out recently and it's really helpful. If you have a talent in presentation you can include it here also without actually writing.
For me it's the opposite. My presentation skills are the worst , not because I don't know what to say but because I get stressed. So writing everything down is my best option.

I like colour so use it a lot in my work notebook. I think colour makes things stand out, so if I'm writing notes for students I always use it.
As for metaphorically? I shall leave that to the judgement of others!

When I try to make it that way..I can make it colorful. Sometimes it requires more though than I want to put in though.

I never really aim for colorful, maybe I should.

I have no idea how to make my writing colorful when I'm writing here. But yes when writing on a paper I always prefer using different colors
