all right my friend so I'm back with our second update on writing here and we already covered editing so now I'd like to talk about adding more details to your writing I know that is awesome most confusing part to do because I know sometimes it's hard to go back to your desk after I've told you or mrs. fully is told you I had a few more details and I know that you're usually thinking what on Earth does she mean so I didn't more details usually involves adding some adjectives and as you remember from class additives are also known as describing words as your writing if I tell you oh that sounds great but we need a few more details if you are describing words here are some good examples colors can you add a few more colors numbers or amounts sizes ceilings scenery there's lots of ways to describe the characters or the animals are the places in your writing so here's some examples I messed up. Turn up there Don't Laugh at My art here we go you like my character so as you start thinking about your writing your characters if I say add more details tell me what are they thinking are they mad they have ideas what exactly are they thinking I told you to ask for more details tell me about your characters what are they saying are they talking to themselves are they talking to each other how are they feel and a happy sad angry are characters moving can you tell me about that is there a way to describe it all right as we move on over adding details like we saw up here means to describe your characters what's your character doing going somewhere what do they look like are they short tall hair color eye color clothes no clothes what's their mood what are they feeling happy sad mad all right so as you do more and more riding at home I want you to start thinking about bring more details and if I say that it's simply means can you describe your character or any character in your story a little bit more remember your ways to make your story interesting to the reader all right
