Summary


Adding detail to sentences:
 Using only simple sentences in your writing can

make your writing dull and colourless.
 Varying the length of your sentences by also using

compound and complex sentences will keep your
reader interested, involved and wanting to read
more.

 Making good use of adjectives and adverbs also will
add detail and interest to your writing.
