How to be more descriptive while writing my story?

my answer may you refuse
I write my stuff from my heart
I mean ,I go on line with my heart
If it feels an idea , I just write about it
and If it doesn't feel it ,I change the idea!!!

Think about the different senses (hearing, taste, touch, smell, sound) and see if you can fit them in.

My teacher told us to pick a boring line out of a story like, "The house was creepy" and make it more exciting.

"The house smelled like rotting wood and rat droppings, almost as if no one except the rats had been in it in years. The only sound was the creaking of the floor panels as she walked up the half broken stairs of the freaky front porch."

See how that was a little better at least. Imagine if you were in that situation. What would you be feeling then? What would be happening around you? hope this answer helped.

What I do is imagine my stories like a movie and describe. what I "see" the setting the costumes the actions make the reader feel like they're there
Washington Irving has a good example of detailed descriptions if you want an example

His the legend of sleepy hollow is quite good

just get the basics down, your creation will come alive as you begin to create,your thoughts will relay upon the paper, and your sleep will be all over over the plACE when your ideas ,expand , but relax it becomes perfect later,when you add in color, and surroundings,people,and descriptions. also may help to try to alow others of handicaps. for example ,how would you alow a blind person to feel what you write, good question though,once you start the creation comes alive,from your heart of imagination of yours,and of some experience,of life which i believe you have had. i look forward to reading anything that someone can pen, and good luck,and may your creation aid you in becoming alive for us all;-]

imagine your charecters as people give them personalities and faults give almost every noun a adjective. for example 1.the wind was blowing hard ,2.The bitter wind blew with surprising force and brought with it flakes of icy snow.hope it helps

ok like you have to fit evry sense into what you want them to see hear etc dont rush it.. a story isnt ment to be rushed like ex: i walked to my friends house. no. i walked out of my house tears stinging my eyes the bitter cold of december chilling me to the bone. i had no idea where i was going all i knew was i had to get out of there. i found myslf walking to jills house- my best friend, along with the sight i smelt chocolatechip cookies being made...... now doesnt that soud better?

i was taught to imagine i was actually in the place, what i'd smell, hear, see, taste (?) and feel. it doesnt sound too complicated but it sometimes can be :) x

You can use imagery to liven ur writing...using things that provoke senses (sight, feel, taste, smell, hear) but you don't want to use too much because it might be hard to follow...

Here's how to be more descriptive: STOP USING ADJECTIVES! Good imagery is in the verbs, figurative language and occasionaly, the adverbs.
The most common mistake writers make is use a gigantic pile of adjectives as a cheap means of description instead of using more creative means.
