Setting and description
Setting is the place and time where your story is set. It could be a different planet in the far future, present-day rural Northumberland, or 14th century Egypt.
If you think your descriptive writing may be getting repetitive or you have difficulty describing, then remember this - when someone reads your story, they will be forming their own personal picture of how your world will look in their own head. Maybe you only need to give them enough raw data to let their imagination get going. Try it, you may find that your writing flows better as well.
If you’re writing action / fight / battle scenes and are having trouble describing the scenes a good starting point is to watch a movie with some good fighting scenes in and then go away and describe what you’ve just seen. (Gladiator is an excellent example of historical one-on-one and mass combat battles.)
