Challenge of the Week LXXXVII
Descriptive Writing. One of the four foundational elements of the written word. You can write about anything you want, poetry or Prose; but make sure to focus on your descriptions. Whether you're describing a character, a setting, or an emotion, we want the imagery to leap out of the page. But tread lightly - there is such a thing as too much description. We're looking for that perfect balance. Imagery that sings, but doesn't scream.

A Woman.

Ebony. Emptiness; no, the void itself. Color in nothingness, smoothly plaited back and pinned firmly up and away.

Sepia. Rich red-brown, warm in undertones. An unbroken expanse, save the pale pink of raised scars wound around wrists.

Eyes. A rich brown, but cooler, harder. Filled with the weight of struggle and torment, loss and constant grief.

Strong. Muscled and sturdy, but not burly. Not without delicate notes, and more balanced for them.

Loud. Brisk, not brash, busy and confident. Unapologetic for space occupied.
