The best writing tip I've received as an author

JUST LIKE YOU IMAGINE IT I Rewind in time to a year ago, when I was still a 13 year old author, releasing my first novel-Emily Lee Three Day Mystery, gauging for the feedback from my diligent English teacher/ proof-reader. I enthusiastically entered her assigned office, the warmth that emanated from the fire place instantaneously enveloped around my petite frame. She gazed at me from beneath her large spectacles and proceeded to leisurely stroll towards me, my novel peeking out of her tight grasp. Momentarily, she stood inches away from me, wearing a proud grin on her wrinkled face. She sincerely complimented my writing before she gave me a segment of wise advice which will undisputedly remain emblazoned in my mind till eternity, “Whenever you write, you should always describe the setting, emotions experienced by the characters and every other event taking place in your story in detail and just like you imagine it.”
