hmmmm, having real problem with putting what I am trying to say on paper.....for example I want to say:
boy ignores the comment, sees the embroidered pouch, hopes that there is some money inside, grabs it, but it turns out to be empty…
I have come to realise thats an info dump, and no one wants to read that!!
I seem to do this a lot, my descriptions tend to be direct and brief, devoid of any colourful explanations. And after some more reading of writing resource and critques, its the old show vs tell connudrum.
Is it just a case of sitting down for hours and slowly constructing it? Are there any helpful hints and tips for this problem?
