Ah ha! Found you here. I realized another one this morning: terror of the word "it." Okay, yes, "it" can be ambiguous, and I've become much more aware of it, but it sometimes serves its purpose well. Oh, and fear of "echoes," even when they're clearly deliberate. Hope I'm not offending anyone with these, as they do turn up a lot. And I am more aware than I used to be, which is a good thing.
I love 'it'. 'It' echoes are wonderful when used sparingly.
