A few well-chosen words can create a strong sense of place which adds a rich dimension to your story. It draws your reader right in, as if they were in the room with your characters. Choose one of the following places and describe it using ALL of your five senses (touch, taste, sight, smell, hearing). In fiction, you won't usually use all five, but limbering up your storytelling this way will help you show rather than tell the story.
A market in the South of France
A teenage bedroom
A pub
A hairdresser's salon
The souk in Marrakesh
A stately home
A garden
