How To SHOW and Not TELL Internal Conflict

Показать описание
"Show, don't tell" is a piece of writing advice I'm sure we're all familiar with. It's easy enough to apply this rule to your descriptions and bring the action to life by showing your reader what's happening instead of just telling them — but what about internal conflict and character journeys?
That's what today's video is all about.

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!
