Step 1: Add a Descriptor (Adjective/adverb) Original Sentence: The dog was sad. Add an adjective. New Sentence: The floppy-eared dog was sad. Better, but still not BEST.

Step 2: Add an Action Word (VERB) Original Sentence: The dog was sad. Better Sentence: The floppy-eared dog was sad. Add an ACTION WORD (VERB) New Sentence: The floppy-eared dog whined. Better, but still not BEST.

Step 3: Add a “Why” phrase Why was the dog sad? We know he’s sad because he is whining. WHY is he whining? New Sentence: The floppy-eared dog whined as his master drove away. Better than “The dog was sad,” but still not BEST.

Step 4: Add a more specific noun Decent sentence: The floppy-eared dog whined as his master drove away. Change a non-specific noun (DOG) to a more specific noun New sentence: The floppy-eared Basset Hound whined as his master drove away. Much better than “The dog was sad,” but can it be better?

Step 5: Repeat a Step of your choice Original Sentence: The dog was sad. MUCH better sentence: The floppy-eared Basset Hound whined as his master drove away. Add something else. Choose to repeat ANY of the steps. Let’s add another describing word. Let’s describe HOW the dog whined. A word that describes a verb is an ADVERB. Let’s add an adverb. The floppy-eared Basset Hound whined pitifully as his master drove away.

Let’s Review The dog was sad. (Descriptor) Adjective The floppy-eared dog was sad. Action Word (VERB) The floppy-eared dog whined. WHY?!? The floppy-eared dog whined as his master drove away. Specify. The floppy-eared Basset Hound whined as his master drove away. Repeat a step for the most description possible. The floppy-eared Basset Hound whined pitifully as his master drove away.
