I'm "one of those" amateur writers who can write interesting/good/engaging short vignettes, and can pack a lot of information or action into the vignettes, but can't seem to make any one scene last for more than a page or two, tops. Trying to deliberately spread out a vignette that I write feels very forced. How do I write something longer (i.e. in the ballpark of 10-20-page chapters for a novel) that feels like it's actually meant to be that long?
Looking for specific tips or mindset shifts that have worked for you or other writers.
Also, writing advice general thread.

Yeah, buddy, how 'bout you post some of them vignettes and let us be judge of your bold claims.
And by "us" I mean probably just me, if I don't lose interest by then.
And by "judge" I mean I will insult and belittle, not just your writing, but you as a person and your (already dubious) worth as a human being.

That's rough man, you didn't have many points to give up from the onset :^)

iq doesn't decrease by a significant/noticeable amount unless you suffer some kind of brain drama or your result was higher than your actual intelligence to begin with
