Two of the best ways to strengthen your writing is to change weak verbs into strong verbs (I call them Arnold Schwarzenegger Verbs!) and include plenty of interesting details.

Use strong, active verbs! Don’t say move, say slither or pounce or tumble or creep or . . . can you think of one?

Fill your writing with specific, interesting details. What sounds better? Steve likes candy or Steve likes dark chocolate M&M’s? The second example puts a clearer picture in the reader’s mind by using concrete information and replacing general words with detailed language.
