White Room Syndrome

A lack of any detailed description in stories, novels or plays that leaves the setting vague and undefined.

Mortimer: "The novel's first chapter had such White Room Syndrome, I didn't know if Jim was in a store looking for a DVD of the Emoji Movie signed by Obama or voyaging through space for it"
(The above example is exaggerated for humor/humour)
Mortimer: " 'She ran inside the beautiful room, and waved to her friend in the room' This lacks any description about the room or her friend, therefore it has what we writers and readers call, White Room Syndrome"
