So I need your advice on two problems,
My story had been reviewed a few days ago with a well informative review. I was told that I lacked so much in setting the scenes and visualization. Which for example was that I hadn't mentioned the use of smartphones until Ch7 so the readers had a vague idea about the level of technology till that chapter.
So I wanted to know how to gain a descriptive writing style without describing the unnecessary. I know it needs practice, but have anyone of you practiced in a particular way that made it not boring and a bit quicker?
And for my other problem, style. I'm not so good at English. Although my grammar is good, my plot is good and my characters are decent... My style is mediocre at best. And I want to improve that. Have anyone of you improved their style? If yes then how? Do you have resources? Courses? Or a few types of exercises you had practiced?
