Question

Good authors choose their words very carefully. Take a few minutes to write a short paragraph describing an experience you have recently had. Pick a location you went to or an event you attended. Once you have finished, read over what you have written. Now, write a second paragraph. In it, you will repeat the information from the first paragraph, but you will choose your words more carefully. Ask yourself questions like: What words capture this image exactly? What is the best word to convey how something looked, or how I felt? Take more time with the second paragraph. Your response should be at least 150 words in total.

Answer 1

One very dark night in the country I gaze at the bright light in front of me with so many words on it. The words started blurring together I was so tired but a loud thud at my window frightened me. So I cautiously look out the window and with relief I sigh. For the thud was only my dog trying to get my attention to come back in.
