Homework Help: English - Descriptive Writing

Posted by PurpleAndrew on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 at 6:06am.

I have to get a rough draft of my descriptive writing assesement done by tomorrow.

Approximately one page long, what can i write about ?
I can describe a place, event, object etc.
I do have a passion for basketball so i might write about that.

Do you have any suggestions, ideas, pointers, advice or comments?

Thank You !

Here are a couple of excellent sites on descriptive writing.

By the way... basketball is "king" <G>
Suggestion - good descriptive writing appeals to the senses.... Describe the crowd at a basketball game... the feeling, sound, smell, motion.
