 Section 6 - Descriptive Writing
 
 Summary of the Rules
 
 RULE: 6.1 Keep sentences in descriptive writing as short as possible (25 words maximum).
 
 RULE: 6.2 Try to vary sentence lengths and constructions to keep the text interesting.
 
 RULE: 6.3 Use paragraphs to show your reader the logic of the text.
 
 RULE: 6.4 Each paragraph must have only one topic.
 
 RULE: 6.5 Always start the paragraph with the topic sentence.
 
 RULE: 6.6 Use keywords to make the relationship between sentences and paragraphs clear.
 
 RULE: 6.7 The maximum length of a paragraph is 6 sentences. Do not use one-sentence paragraphs more than once in every 10 paragraphs.
 
 RULE: 6.8 Present new and complex information slowly.
 
 Refer also to these rules, which are closely related:
 
Sentences: Refer to Rules 4.1 thru 4.4.
 
Word Counts: Refer to Rules 8.2, 8.4, and 8.6 thru 8.9
 
Active and passive voice of verbs: Refer to Rule 3.6.
 
 The Basic Philosophy
 
 The basic philosophy of Simplified English is to keep texts as simple and readable as possible. Descriptive writing is no exception to this rule.
 
 The purpose of descriptive writing is to give information, not instruction. This can be in the form of a
Description and Operation topic, a General paragraph, or a Note in a procedure. Remember that descriptive material in procedural Notes will be read by people who will do the procedure. Descriptive material in a Description and Operation topic will be read by people who want only information. This (and your company policy) can determine the level of language used in these sections.
 
 Sentence Length
 
 RULE: 6.1 Keep sentences in descriptive writing as short as possible (25 words maximum).
 
 In descriptive writing, a sentence length of 25 words is permitted. This is because descriptive text is more complex than procedural text. Refer to Section 8 for the rules about word counts.
 
 Long sentences are not necessary for good technical writing. It is possible to write about the most complex topics in short sentences. The use of short sentences will not weaken your description or argument, but will make it stronger. This is because you give your reader frequent opportunities to stop and "digest" what you wrote.
