Creative Writing Assignment: Familiar Place___________________________________
Mini Lesson
The amount of detail you put into describing your setting depends entirely on the tone/mood of your story. If you are creating an intimate or personal conversation, you will want that scene to occur in a comfortable setting - unless you are deliberately creating tension. If your setting is too description-heavy, you will overwhelm your readers with imagery and the mood of the setting will be lost to them.
Summary: Be deliberate in creating your settings. Consider the mood and purpose of your writing. Strike a balance between "vague" and "overwhelming."

KELTICANGEL! I haven't been on this site for soooo long, much has changed... and I can see my life's not the only one in a transition. You're married now? A thousand grats, hugs, and kudos to you and your man ^_^
How in the name of heaven are you?

I haven't been on for forever either. I'm doing really well. Loving married life, begun my career in teaching (although nothing full time yet) and trying to balance my online with my real life social lives. ^_^
What about you?
(You'll note I haven't actually had a chance to answer you until now - more testimony to my sporatic unsuredness)

What I see and what I know cannot be added to what you see and what you know because they are not of the same kind. Neither can it replace what you see and what you know, because that would be to replace yourself.
