I know I'm not the best writer, but here's what I do to write:
A while ago, I wrote my story in script format, here's an example:
[Prof]
Young lady, I'm gonna need you to cooperate. We cannot allow you to live unless we have backstory about your life.
[Neya]
That's an incredibly stupid rule. You should change that
Basically I write all my dialogue first and add the details later.
I try to write in past-tense because it makes it seem more like a story than a speech.
I also try to use sight as little as possible. I feel that it makes it more engaging and easier to imagine if I read a story that describes the scent of the scene, what noises can be heard, how cold it is, exactly how the character feels (so I, as a reader, can relate possibly), and how things are being said.
I used to write in script format as well, but I scrapped that idea because it didn't give me all the creativity that I wanted, and I guess I could rewrite them in book format but I lost inspiration (speaking of which, I'm working on a RWBY or BNHA fanfiction when I have time).
I try to use MY go-to words as little as possible. I want my characters to have their own voice. For example, the writer could be a really kind girl with no jokes and if all her characters are like that as well, it gets monotonous and repetitive.
I try to give them their own voices. Here's what I did for "Society's Rules":
-Otter speaks sarcastically but also acting like she doesn't care
-Ruby speaks whatever she's feeling unless it could get in the way of a plan
-Orion speaks as if he's making fun of people, but when he gets embarrassed, he loses the attitude
-Sadie acts innocent because she doesn't know who she is (literally-)
