I am currently writing a story and would love to get some help with it, if possiple. It's not too good, but it's not extremely horrible, I believe.

A lone figure sat on a window seat of a two-story plain white house. The figure hummed quietly as the rain gently hit the window and white panels of the house. The silhouette was a young girl. Her face was calm and tranquil as her deep blue eyes scanned the surrounding wooded area. Her eyes locked onto something in the distance, suddenly as a creature scurried across the base of the trees. She furrowed her brow in concentration. A black blur moved at a fast pace athwart the forested setting, her keen eyes followed it. The thing stopped abruptly and looked directly at her. The girl was startled and unnerved at the very notion of this, but that wasn’t what caused shock to sink in. It was this creature’s eyes: they were a sharp, deep, blood red. Images filled her mind—those eyes were tantalizing and just as painful as the sight of blood which accompanied them within the memories that played in her mind. She didn’t remove her gaze, but she felt her heart rate increase slowly but surely. As the thing slowly receded, it’s crimson eyes still fixated on her, her heart rate started to slow down to its normal rate. She closed her eyes and ran a lace gloved hand through her thick brown hair. She relaxed her back so it was partially leaning against the white window frame. Upon reopening her eyes she glanced skyward, the dark gray of the clouds meeting her wary gaze.

I love hearing oppinions, so please feel free to leave a post, thank you.

That stupid essay? I hated that, I forgot what I wrote on it, all I know is I did pretty well for a 7th grader XD (that brings back memories)
No, it's not describing myself. It's about the main character, Avril. . .
And thank you =] I don't know what happens next, that's all I have so far XD

Too disjointed. Fewer sentences, less description makes more impact.

less description?? lol that's what lots of writers do.... i'm like when will the god***n drama starts... all he/she(writer) is doing is describing the scene, sometimes it even takes 2-3 pages just to finish the description of the scene/environment...the first couple pages of pulp fiction for example lol
well if taken in other way, it makes u feel that you're in the actual happening which is a good thing

There is description, then there is over describing something. It defeats the purpose. It is much better to allow things to flow more through making description brief and intuitive; making the reader picture things themselves makes a bigger impression than saying it's a red box, 3 by 4 by 5 in diameter.

I don't doubt your enthusiasm, but I do your intelligence.

lmao, all you are doing is adding to my point, which is over-describing is stupid ...and you doubt me?? lol
anyways i always hated over-describing, it just makes the writing uber boring to read and vulnerable to flaws.

Yeah, I rarely read past the first sentence of your posts. With good reason.

So stop coming to conclusions without knowing the truth??

Yeah, that's not going to happen unless you immediately reverse every assumption I've made about you, since you joined, from your previous posts.

Hardly a debate, and since when have I not resorted to being petty?

Any thread in which I participate quite quickly descends into an arguement.
