I have read a lot about not using adjectives, or cutting them out. I am slightly confused. How are adjectives used appropriately?

Thank you,

Bryan

Thanks Roshawn, fixed that.

Excellent tip. Using vivid language certainly makes the written word come to life.

(Oh, and I think you meant to say “paints” instead of “pains” in the second sentence of the first paragraph.)

I forget sometimes that we have so much power in our words.

Razeen, I think both the second and the third sentences are examples using vivid language, but they are describing different mountains.
