Day 69 & 70

69: "Go back and cut out one excessive metaphor or simile from each page. As F. Scott Fitzgerald put it, “You never cut anything out of a book you regret later.” "

70: "Cut out one adjective or adverb in each paragraph."

Yesterday I had to go father-son compout, but again I thought about the story.

I'm not sure what the guideline is referring to by saying cutting out excessive metaphors. They are not good? So we should never use them? And probably we should not use adjectives/adverbs either. I believe Steven King said something like "the road to hell is adjectives."
