Are you kidding me? Today, if anyone describes anything, s/he is tagged as being an awful writer. One is not supposed to use descriptive language; it's weak! It "tells" rather than "shows!" It wastes the reader's time!

Welcome to the wonderful world of writing, man, where using an adjective is akin to taking the lord's name in vain.

What? Description is showing. That's the only way to show in prose.

Telling is when the reader gets information second-hand instead of 'seeing' it (ie. having it described to them) directly. As is, the author writing that X the Magnificent is the greatest knitter in the land of Y! And then never actually describing X knitting or describing X's magnificent knit creations.

People are encouraged not to make their descriptions so flowery the reader can't make it through to the end of the paragraph without forgetting what is being described.
