You didn't mention what you wanted to write.
Do you want to write a novel? Is it fiction, sci-fi, horror, comedy, satire?
Do you want to write a poem? Is it a sonnet, an ode, a haiku? Is it freeform?
Do you want to write a paper? Is it for school? Is it to be published in a journal? Does it cover matters pertaining to physics, engineering, biology, chemistry?
Do you want to write a screenplay? TV, movie, theater, or other?
Do you want to write lyrics? Is it a love song, or an anti-war ballad? Is it jazz, rock, pop, grunge? Do you want it to rhyme?
What you want to write should influence your research material. If I wanted to write a sci-fi novel, I'd start with reading some <PERSON>, some <PERSON>, some <PERSON>, and some <PERSON>*. If I wanted to write technical papers, I'd find the peer-reviewed journals of the field and read their works.
IMPORTANT
This is not to say that there isn't any crossover. 487
Just because a word is used in a <PERSON> novel doesn't mean that it doesn't belong in a technical paper.
Researching what's popular and what YOU like in your chosen field, in addition to any other fields in which you're interested, might make your search more fruitful.
Finally, to piggy-back off another answer, "<PERSON> went to the place" might be the precise phrase you need; the images that appear in my mind are
1) Someone struggling to unsuccessfully remember the details of <PERSON>'s activities, perhaps due to intoxication or fatigue. 2) Communicating with a preoccupied teenager. 3) 1940s gangster trying to convey information to another party fully aware of what "the place" is and why <PERSON> is going there while trying to remain discreet.
Just because something, at first glance, sounds overly flowery or overly simple doesn't mean that it's wrong.
*The mention of these specific authors does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of their suitability to serve as inspiration to influence the lexicon of an aspiring writer, but simply reflects their popularity and/or the prolific nature of their work(s).

Just 'cause I mentioned these folks in my example right here don't mean that they be the best persons to read when yer tryin' to brush up on yer book-learnin'; it just means that some folks think their stuff be perty special. 873
