Zugzwang

sylin city parliament cordially invite you to attend the second annual masquerade ball in order to stave off the dreariness of the season! refreshments will be provided, and formal attire is required. please leave your weaponry at home and dance the night away! ...however, this year not all is as it seems. it appears someone has placed a riddle on the back of the invitations. who-- or what-- could have done this, and why?

ZUGZWANG is an illustrated panfandom roleplay with a twist-- characters must either choose to give up their memories or abilities to play the chessmaster's game. with a progression system that lets you earn back what you've lost and over fifty active fandoms, the sky is the limit!

Lately I've been noticing that I have hard time when it comes to describing objects or just being descriptive in general. Like, I can give you two or more paragraphs about how my character feels - what they're thinking about their current situation or things of that nature. But I want to do MORE than just that.

So I guess I'm asking is what advice do you guys have for improving on this? Because I've seen so many of you guys describing things in such wonderful detail and I'm kinda jealous of it.

Reading a lot of other materials, books, etc. helps my own writing. When I'm reading something, if I have my phone or if I'm on the computer I pull up a notepad and scribble down lines/passages that interested me. I have a collection of these lines and I slowly deconstruct them and see how they apply into my own writing.

e.g. one of my favourite lines lately: "I felt so light, like mist. As if I could fade away any moment, and our embrace was the only thing that was keeping me from disappearing."
