What is Descriptive?

  

A descriptive essay is an essay that describes something like a person, location, thing, event, or process.  Descriptive essays can be non-fiction, but they can also be fiction.  The goal is to allow the reader to visualize whatever is being described.  Good descriptive essays evoke all of the senses, so that the reader knows how what is being described looks, sounds, smells, tastes, and feels.
