Libre Office? Huh. I haven't heard of it before. How's it compare to other WPs? And your point about not needing a checker is invalid. EVERYONE needs a good spelling and grammar checker. if they didn't, editors everywhere would be without jobs. *nods*
I don't think the overly ornate phrases are necessarily BAD. It's part of what makes you descriptive elements so vivid. What IS bogging it a bit are the unnecessary words -- which, now that you mentioned the NaNo aspect, makes perfect sense. I think one of the hardest things for me with NaNo was trying not to write words but trying to write words that matter. It's very hard, especially with that "ZOMG WORD COUNT!!!" drive.
RE: bloodrust. Ah, okay. That makes sense. *nods* Carry on!
