There should have been drama about the way the bridge looked, its foreboding nature. I tell writers to look at the image of the bridge but then describe what they see in their mind using that image. In a horror story, imagery is everything: you just can't be thin and use a simple comparative description like that.Cheryl Anne Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12564041914501542048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20796627.post-64765202706913254382009-05-21T18:07:49.036-05:002009-05-21T18:07:49.036-05:00Who hasn't seen the Golden Gate Bridge?
