How do I stop rambling?
Focus on a single climax. Once you hit the peak of your story, immediately move to the resolution.

Is it okay to use simple words?
Yes! A coherent story with simple words is better than a messy story with complex vocabulary. Use advanced words strategically for impact.
What if I lose my train of thought while improvising?
Use a buying-time phrase like "Now that I think about it..." or simply pause. A brief, confident silence is much better than "um" or "uh".
