How to personalize a template
A strong wind description gives direction, variability, scale, and consequence through observable effects. It avoids converting one sensation into an exact wind-speed or weather forecast unless the scene has measured or researched evidence.
- 1Choose the template closest to your actual purpose.
- 2Replace every bracketed field with specific information.
- 3Delete any sentence that does not belong in your situation.
- 4Read the result aloud for unnatural transitions or repeated phrasing.
- 5Verify names, dates, links, facts, and promises before sending or publishing.
