no one is disappointed in you for not writing today

sometimes wips need to breathe a little

you will figure out how to write this scene

Sensory Focus: describing every single experience is going to overwhelm the reader. instead focus on those that stand out or actually advance the story.

Show, don‘t tell… unless you should tell: yes, usually showing is better than telling, but not everything needs to be packaged in wonderful words and metaphors. if it has no grander impact other than context or setting the mood, you can just say that the character is cold

Narrative Focus: depending on the narrator, the focus might be on different things. This can be influenced by interests, fears, emotional state, experience, ... (For example, someone who enjoys art/architectue/ fashion/... will focus on that particular aspect of their surroundings...)

Noticeable Abnormality: people are creatures of habit, they are unlikely to take conscious notice of things that are the exact same way they always are. Focus rather on things sensory experiences that are unusual; like an unusual scent when coming into a room, unusual heat, a car that doesn't fit into this part of the city, ...

Emotional State: someone‘s emotional state is going to influence how well they pay attention to their surroundings and which details they focus on (For example, someone who is frantic might miss details)
