I want to improve on my story writing skills in general, so I might as well ask you guys.
I'm finding it difficult to write stories that aren't... boring, per say. My stories tend to drag on and have an overall clunky feel about them. Any tips?

The time a story starts getting bored, that is your limit to word count you can write well for one story. The more stories you write, the higher you can shoot for. The best writers can give you literally a million words without boring you.

Descriptive writing would require a lot of personification, for example I did something about Autumn for descriptive writing, and compared it to many things human.
Also, in the same text, I put satire towards humans but that doesn't matter

Now to think of a story idea...
