Thursday inbox observation. One of the fastest ways to strengthen pages is to trust the reader. If your character's intimidating, funny, unstable, seductive, brilliant, terrifying, or deeply unwell, then let them behave that way on the page.

Subtle Themes: Engaging Your Readers Through Character Choices One of the quickest ways to lose a reader is to tell them what your story means. Theme is powerful—but only when it’s felt, not forced. Readers don’t want a lecture; they want an experience that guides them to their own understanding. The most memorable stories trust the audience to connect the dots. So, how can you communicate a powerful, meaningful theme without sounding preachy?

Are you preaching in your writing? Learn how to reveal theme through character, conflict, and subtext—without ever spelling it out.

So, I have a "pop-controversial opinion" on #writing. #showdonttell is basically BS.
Now, if you are completely new to writing, it can be a helpful bit of advice, but once you pass that initial stage between #scene and #exposition, #author s need to choose the right tool for the right job. #advice

I had the nerve to say “Hun. Don’t feel so good. Crashy.”

She says “Gotcha.” Almost… harshly. 😟

Why? 🥺
SHE ARRIVED AN HOUR LATER. 🥹
At 00:00.
In the rain.
In current day Mexico.

I was stimming in disbelief. She was like “Well, hun what’d you think I was gonna do?”

Let your characters reveal themselves through action, not explanation.
Behavior is emotional truth—especially under pressure.

Descriptive and Vivid Language Good writing comes alive in the reader’s mind. Walter teaches you how to use imagery, metaphors, similes, and more to create a vivid world.

#showdonttell Dude just explained this in words I can understand! With that said, still will get into Deepdive, which offers intensive courses, but Masterclass has still been worth the money. Similar to Great Courses but the “professors” are in the industry.
