I am reading and critiquing Dr. Batra's upcoming manuscript and am intimidated to be offering her suggestions on her work.

I am just intimidated because I have to read her manuscript with a dictionary, as I do not understand a good portion of the words she uses.
But she is writing to a college audience, so I figured that if I don't know the words, it might help her to tone it down so we can understand.

Tracey, all I really want is for people to say what they really mean and it's good to use description, symbolism, metaphors, it's also good just to be straightforward.
