Description

Read Psalms 113-115

Psalms 115:7 "They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat."

Some writers love description. They love to find just the right words to exactly describe the scene.

There are readers who also love description and enjoy losing themselves in the scene the writer is describing. But most are more interested in getting to the action of the story or article.

We want to strike the right balance. We want to use enough description to firmly anchor our readers in our writing world, but not so much that they skip over some of our best work.
