I find the "Show, Don't Tell" slogan confusing. Great authors use both techniques as a more realistic way of telling a story. Making "showing" instead of "telling" a rule kills creativity especially for new writers of fiction short stories.

I'm glad I found your channel. A little favor to ask, if you can speak a bit slower. It's hard to follow so many useful information when you're talking so fast. Otherwise, great info. Thanks!
