Identifying Good Writing

Published by JJR,

This is the start of a series on this blog where I find a piece of writing and identify what the writer is doing well. This of course is to help in my own writing and be a sort of self-homework to push myself.
This piece of writing comes from a box of DragonSleeves. Each box has a different story of a dragon on the back.
  • The phrase "circling above the canyon like prize-fighters" is a strong description as it establishes setting along with a simile to further develop the two dragons.
  • "light shook inwards" is a cool way to describe fire charging up
  • "inferno", "collapsing", and "craned" are good words.

Thanks for reading my analysis.
