Really.

Test the things I say. Practice all four steps.

Look at what other authors do. Are their metaphors accurate? Do they create a mood? What forms do they use and why?

Try to write good metaphoricals. Look for places to add metaphoricals. Intentionally try different forms.

And then you will improve. I promise.
