| Publisher Description: Description and action are key elements in any story. Without them, scenes and characters fall flat and become vague.This book focuses on actions and descriptions associated with parts of the body, divided into categories from head to feet, along with plenty of examples.Also included are hints on how to avoid overwriting, author intrusion, too many adverbs, and passive voice. In addition, you'll learn how similes and metaphors enhance a story, and as a bonus, you'll get over 100 sentence starts freely available for you to use in your work. Although aimed toward beginner to intermediate, more experienced writers may also find it helpful. |
