Does being too wordy make one appear insecure? insincere? uncertain? Too willing to please? Anything else undesirable (as this wordy question may even connotate) ?

I love giving complete descriptions, explanations and definitions in writing and daily speech.

Wow. Even that is wordy.

People seem more calm and secure if they use a few clear and well placed words. And people get lost in detailed description, no matter how helpful it is.

If I use too many words, and too much description, does this come across as too talkative and annoying? Insecure?

I just want to convey a thought, feeling, ambiance, atmosphere, or explanation accurately and precisely.

I tend to over-write. I’ve written lengthy papers that actually had very little practical content, no matter how well they were written.

How about me, fellow jellies. Do I write too much?
