How to catch my attention/ Rp tips

Hi! I'll be giving you some tips on role playing and how to catch my attention.

Tips and tricks
I'm what's know as a serious roleplayer and I take logic into play. What I mean by this is something many novice roleplayers often Make. They tend to skip their characters place to place without describing what they're doing.
They forget to take time in what they're doing and forget to enjoy what they are doing.
It's like a story.
When writing a response you must! Take into consideration time and day. So if you are doing a days long journey, describe what they're doing and they're surroundings.
Say your are in a forested area with spines and dark green grass, this is how many would describe it:

Alex walked through the forest, with smile on her, her hand in her pockets.

This is how a lot of people would describe it. If you want to improve, write something more like this:

Alex smiled as she stared at the tall evergreen pines, the green colour calming as she watched birds flew in and out building their nests.
She sighed softly as she tilted her head down to stare at the rough, green grass that brushed along her feet.
The air was sweet and comforting , the type of smell that would welcome you home after a stressful day of school or work.

Paragraph Breaks:

Think of it like an essay! You wanna do your best!
Make sure to have paragraph breaks when setting changes.
When adding paragraph breaks, do them when one of these things happen
•setting Changes
•A new character enters the area or conversation
•when a different character speaks
•Describing a character/setting
•time changes!

This will make everything easier to read.

Keeping the character in character:

This is one of the biggest this that get on my nerve.
People often stray away from the character's personality or get into way to much.
What I mean by this is when a character is mean.
I often see people keeping their character extremely nice and sweet when they're supposed to be mean.
To keep in play, they don't have to be mean 24/7, it's good to see a characters hidden personality, but if you want to stay in character, make them snarky or have a rude tone when talking.

Tip for longer sentences:

Something I figured out when writing is to start off with the basic sentence and just add on to it.

So here's our basic sentence,

Abigail smiled sweetly and waved, "Hey."

Now, lets add onto this sentence

Abigail smiled sweetly, her smile was warm and welcoming, her cheeks chubby and pink. She waved happily as she saw her friend, "Hey!"

That's what I'm talking about.

Emotions and actions:

When describing Emotions, you want to describe them in detail! Lets take a sad charter, and instead of saying they're sad, go something like this,

Her eyes widened softly, her eyebrows raising in surprise before he expression turned soft.
Her breath suddenly hitched as she tucked her head in her shoulders and looked down. Her lip quivered, stray hair falling over her face as a warm tear fell down her face.

That's what I'm talking about! It shows the character is said without saying it! The same goes when you're describing actions! Lets say a character is tired and sore but is in a life or death situation on the brink of death, this is a way to describe.

Her chest burned and her muscles ached. She desperately gasped for air that burned her cracked lips and dry tongue. Her knees quivered, her eyelids falling halfway. She could barley pick herself up when she crashed again the ground.
Only when she laid there could she hear the crashing of the enemy and feel the warm blood that soaked her clothes, mud clinging to her skin.

Additional:

Don't say things like how enticing and seductive a character is in front of your love interest. I'll purposely make it harder to get them in a relationship because that takes away so much growth from the rp and characters.
The relationship will grow with time, you have to be patient. You'll find it so much more enjoyable in the end.
