- Do my sentences begin in different ways?
- Do I have vivid verbs and descriptive adjectives? Check each verb and adjective to see if stronger options could be used.
- Have I used figurative language yet? (2- similes, 1-metaphor, and 3-imagery sentences)
- If I have incorporated dialogue, have I followed the formatting guidelines?
- Have I SHOWN, rather than told, all events? If it seems like a detail is summarized, rework the wording.
