So I've discovered something that I've been overlooking in my writing. I'm not giving enough description about individual characters. For example, I may say something like "Suzy was brunette with blue eyes." Sure, this gives a general idea of what Suzy looks like, but if I said something like "Suzy had curly, brunette hair that went past her shoulders. Her blue eyes offset her pointed nose and narrow chin," this gives a totally different impression of the same character.
Now the tricky part is finding the balance between too much physical description and not enough.
