🔥 Show, Don’t Tell Tip #1

Readers want to feel your story — not just read about it. “Show, don’t tell” isn’t about more description; it’s about emotional truth.

Tip: Let readers feel what you don’t say.

Instead of writing “She was nervous,” show her twisting her ring or tapping her foot. Emotion shown through action gives readers something to experience instead of just understand. Trust your readers to sense what’s unspoken.
