RE: Mini writing workshop: What is the trouble with adverbs in fiction?
Ever since I read about this in a Stephen King's book, I consider it one of the better advices in writing. The "don't say, show" is a very effective way to separate good writers from regular writers. Great post, thanks for sharing.
Yes, I agree, @christiancaicedo. You can really see the difference in the quality of writing. It is not to say that all adverbs are bad, or those who use them are necessarily bad writers, but it’s one of many great pieces of advice that can help writers elevate their writing and make it stand out.
