I’ve probably said this before, but when I get stuck trying to visualize something, I go out to Pixabay or simply google whatever it is to find some pictures. It can really help me describe something when I’m having difficulty finding the right words. If you can’t see it in your mind when you describe it, the reader probably won’t, either.
Having a visual “story board” fits well with this. Grab some pictures of your characters as well as various scenes from your story. This is especially helpful if you tend to write primarily action and dialog. They’re important, of course, but imagery is important to make the story really come alive. Otherwise, it may wind up reading like a screen play, which really doesn’t establish a bond with reader like visual and emotional details.

I use that technique as well.

I like pixaby, too, but for gardens, rooms and exteriors, I prefer houzz.com – they are free to join & once you do that, you can save photos to various files, which is super handy to sort them into various locations/books.

Thanks for the hot tip, Jeanne! When I was trying to visualize a house in my WIP I looked for real estate listings in the city I needed and picked one out. It had a slide show tour of the entire place. Helped a lot!

That’s a brilliant idea and basically the same concept as how I use houzz.
