A description isn’t just what something looks like. It’s how the world of your story feels, sounds, and enraptures. It’s the secret ingredient that makes the reader dive in and never want to return!

But lots of writers get description wrong…

They overload the page with detail, or they play it safe—describing exactly what’s there, but never how it feels. The result? Pretty sentences that don’t move the story, and readers who start to skim.

When description works, though? It’s magic.

The world around your story stops being a backdrop and becomes part of the emotional engine, deepening tension, building connection, and turning words into an experience.

Writing powerful descriptions isn’t about writing more, it’s about writing with intention!

If you’re ready to move beyond surface details and learn how to make every line of description matter, this workshop is for you! Together, we’ll explore how language can deepen a reader’s experience, draw out emotion, and shape the meaning of a scene without slowing the story down. You’ll learn to think about description not as an afterthought, but as a fundamental tool of storytelling that builds connection and momentum at the same time.

The workshop will feature live writing exercises, time for you to share your work and receive thoughtful, supportive feedback. Expect to be challenged in the best way—to look closer, to listen harder, and to notice what your writing is already doing well and what it’s ready to do next. You’ll leave with new material, clear strategies for revision, and a stronger sense of confidence in your voice and craft.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have:

  • A renewed sense of confidence in your creative voice.

  • A clear framework for writing description that feels intentional and alive.

  • Fresh material written in class and insights you can apply to your work-in-progress.

  • Practical tools for revising your prose with a sharper eye and stronger sense of purpose.

If you want to breathe life into your story with immersive, vibrant descriptions that leave a lasting impact—join me on Sunday, November 16, 1:00 - 3:00 PM EST!
