how do you write a descriptive essay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Pick a topic. Descriptive essays generally focus on a person, a place, an event, or a thing. Writers convey an idea about their topic by describing the topic for the reader in a ‘show, not tell’ manner.< Showing and not telling means that you paint a picture for your reader. A better way to understand it is to relate yourself with a life incident lika a time wher you might have seen a tree next to a river. later you take down notes on the sensory type feelings you had and use that in your final draft. For example, instead of saying, “There were trees near the lake” you could say, “The lake stared through the trees, a wide grey eye trapped in a perpetual state of weeping.”

Create a thesis statement. A thesis statement is the idea that governs the whole essay. It states the purpose of the paper and governs all of the information that is in the paper.
