Then there is the insertion of trivia for no obvious reason other than to pad the word count. I'm reminded of one popular fantasy writer who seems obsessed with describing exactly what each character is wearing in excruciating detail every time they change clothes. It adds exactly nothing to the story, but manages to consume hundreds of words.
