How to be an Imaginative Writer
Creating that world is a simple trick. We “create” the world by reporting on it, repeatedly using images, sights, sounds, smells, and tastes that excite the mind and make it feel real. Very often, to create that world requires us to repeat information in different ways. For example, if I want to create “rain” in my story, I must have my reader see it coming in the distance, smell the taste of moisture in the air, feel the wet drops as they begin to plop down, and so on.
