why do you use so many colours in your posts?

Hey there!! ^w^

So I use them for multiple reasons, actually. I’m glad someone asked, haha!!

Mainly, it helps organize and emphasize my thoughts, I’m someone who has trouble focusing and I have to re-read sentences sooo many times. It makes it easier to go back to typos as well, actually.

It helps some of the readers digest ALL of what I’m saying (bc I say a lot lol).

I use red mostly. That’s because it’s my favorite color lol, but if needed to break up a lot of red where it gets messy, I use blue occasionally. I also use it with side points to show the difference of what I’m saying (like this. Always bolded too).

I even color code certain characters names (albeit maybe inconsistent with other posts) like Will, Mike, Lucas, Eleven, Max, Nancy. If I have more characters than that, sometimes I’ll reuse colors like Dustin, Steve, etcetera!! In certain sentences, I’ll refer to a character like he or she or they and you already know who I’m talking about without repeating names. I always bold names as well. Here’s an example of the difference: Steve and Eleven went to the Hawkins hospital (because of whatever). Steve and Eleven went to the Hawkins hospital (because of whatever). Steve and Eleven went to the Hawkins hospital (because of whatever).

I always highlight important words to get my point across so it’s VERY easy to understand my final point. If I were to say: “one of my favorite characters is Will”, you might skip over “one” or even “favorite” or have to reread “Will”. But if I say: “One of my favorite characters is Will”, then you clearly see my point.

OCD definitely has a part in this, but also having fun!! I like to see all the colors and it’s fun for my eyes, haha!!

Hope this wasn’t too long or anything, but this ask was actually very fun to answer!! :3 <3 <3
