Visualizing Your World

What can you do to make your work more vivid and detailed?

We all want to create vivid descriptions in our writing. We want our readers to "see" the scene we're laying out. But how well are we succeeding? More importantly, how can we get better? New studies have revealed a surprising secret about why it's so hard. We will discuss ways to overcome our blocks so we can create settings, characters, and worlds that pop off the page.

About LeAnn

LeAnn's writing career began in the fourth grade, when she sold her first book, a hand-drawn, hand-lettered edition, on folded 8 1/2 by 5 1/2" paper for ten cents. Then there was a large lull while she worked a day job and studied the writing craft. Her introduction to romance was an old Georgette Heyer book, but now she enjoys books that are a little steamier!

Luring Readers into Living Your Story

Through Deep Viewpoint

Learn how to write the story from a main character's viewpoint, showing thoughts and action and how to blend narrative into the story without a lot of description that may bog down the story. Learn how to change viewpoints so the reader immediately knows whose viewpoint is being followed and will worry about the character's chances of achieving his or her goal.
