Re: Creator's Attitudes Toward Their Creations

People think "show don't tell" means using elaborate metaphors and flowery language instead of just giving your reader the information. What it *actually* means, IMO, is "don't make statements that you can't back up."

IA. If you SAY that your character is say 'more responsible than most people her age, you need to prove it. If you say your character is modest you need to prove it. Have their ACTIONS say that she is those.
