Descriptive Details Detailed, vivid descriptions using the senses: sight, sound, taste, touch, smell. Details are shown not told. Dialogue moves the plot, increasing suspense, showing readers a trait(2) of the character(s), and/or changing the situation or conflict the characters are in. Setting is the backdrop of the story. Character are known through physical descriptions, dialogue, and/or interaction with others. Three drabbles written, which are 100 words each.	15/15
