Re: Your most prominent writing/art/whatever flaw?

[feotakahari]

Description. I have difficulty actually LOOKING at something rather than narrowing my viewpoint down to the relevant details, and more difficulty remembering what I saw, so when I try to write what something looks like, I have to use a lot of reference images. Even then, my descriptions are never as long as those written by other folks.

(And yes, that sentence should have split at "sentences." A good rule of thumb is that if you're using -, you should check to see if . does the same job equally well.)

I'll keep that in mind. And yeah, looking back, I definitely can see that (ironically enough, in the obsessing, I was more focused on the clause at the end, not the beginning, which is probably something else I need to work on). I use dashes a lot, actually, so this will definitely help. :) People keep telling me to "look for natural pauses" but the problem is I talk in run-on sentences so that doesn't really help. :|

Tip for a tip: "rule of five" - when describing something, try using all five senses (either literally or metaphorically, or make sure to spend a lot of time on one sense to compensate for not being able to use another one). Or: If you're looking at something/experiencing something/going somewhere, stop and write down the first five things you notice. I used to have this same problem - I am much more of a dialogue person than description/narration - and the "rule of five" for writing and just getting into the habit of observing was really helpful. :)
