Good point, but let’s say a character gave another character a dry look, how would you word that?
… hmm.
You have a point.
Maybe something like this? “The stare she gave him was as dry as a desert.”
I’m not sure I can be too helpful in this area, I apologize. 😅
I agree. I suppose it’s just I have a hard time describing people’s faces in words–even if I’m looking at a picture or real life person.
Well, we’re all skilled and inexperienced in different things — I know I struggle with place descriptions. 😅
Oh, and btw, that was an excellent description.
Thank you! 😊
Same here–on both counts. xD

I think descriptions such as those are usually the best–though I do use paces quite often.
Hm, I’ve never thought to use “paces” before … thanks! 😁
Alrighty, so you do use it some for third person, but never for first person–for obvious reasons.
Yep, pretty much.
