Conclusion

Content: they must add something unique and spicy in the form of figurative language. If a story began with the line the night was dark as death itself people are more likely to read on and find out what happened, than if the story simply began with the night was dark. To paint a clear picture
Clarity is vital in writing when writers write or tell stories. They want their readers to visualize what they are reading, and be able to smell, taste, and feel every part of the story. Using figurative language achieves this. When you use metaphors in your work, it gives the reader a vivid picture of the situation in their minds. They experience the action as if it were a 3D movie. And even better, their imagination does the creation of the visuals, using the author’s words. Similes and occasionally analogies are also used by writers to help the reader understand situations clearly. Uniqueness
Writers love to be identified by their unique style of writing.
