Explaining
Chapter 2
When explaining, you wanna go straight to the point, but with lots of detail. For example, below I will put 2 sentences and tell you which one is better and why.
1. Hermione brushed her teeth with her yellow and red toothbrush that was really pretty and sparkly, put on an aqua bathing suit that was really tight but pretty, and went downstairs, careful not to miss a step. She quickly put her hair behind her ears and continued to go.
2. Hermione quickly got her teeth brushed and threw on an aqua coloured bathing suit. It was a little tight, but she didn't have time to change. She quickly ran downstairs and tidied her hair up a bit, and continued to find Ginny.
The second one is much better. It states what is happening, with enough detail to motivate the reader to keep reading. The first one has too much detail, it's too long, and you have no idea what's happening.
