What Are You Doing Right Now

I had a stickler AP English teacher who critiqued everything, even if there was nothing to critique. He used to say my writing was "too wordy" but when I reduced it, it was "too concise". Great. Anyway, I'm writing something for my boss that's going out to the entire company and I tried Grammarly for the first time thinking why not? Grammarly said my writing is "too wordy". FML.

So fix it, and then if Grammarly says it's too concise, call your AP English Teacher and ask him how's life at Grammarly, lol.
