Writing to Tell vs Writing to Sell

Guest post today by Kemberlee Shortland of Tirgearr Publishing

Writing to Tell vs. Writing to Sell

I’m sure I’m not the only one whose editor has said, “This is telling. SHOW your reader . . . “.

Here’s an example —

Telling: Mary showered before dressing.

Showing: Mary stepped from the steaming shower and wrapped herself in a thick white terrycloth towel. Her hair was bound to keep it dry, but now she let it down. She watched the coppery curls fall about her bare shoulders in the foggy mirror, her...

Erotic Romance at Book Expo America

By Liz Everly

I’m just back from New York City. I was invited to attend a BEA party by Kensington, my publisher. So I took the opportunity to go and meet with my agent, editor, and as it turned out, much of the Kensington staff. The party was lovely and I met so many wonderful people that work at Kensington. At these parties everything is such a blur and it was not an event where you brought your business cards to hand out, so I’m not going to mention names, just say that everybody was wonderf...

Angel, Devil

This is actually a painting of Icarus, but you get the general idea.

by Madeline Iva.

I wish I knew more about angels. They have their rankings, but I can never keep them straight–can you? I know that the middle age was all about hierarchy, and there are orders of angels, and they’re in choirs or something. It’s a complicated system, but not–sez I, who loves order–not necessarily a well organized system.

Out of the Jewish angels, my favorite type is the Hashmallim — the glowing ones, amber ones....

Earning Emotions

The fabulous Leonor Fini

by C. Margery Kempe

The notion of a universality of human experience is a confidence trick and the notion of a universality of female experience is a clever confidence trick.

~ Angela Carter

I don’t like shoes.

I thought I should get that right up front at the start. I grew up running around barefoot the better part of the year and no one in my family wore shoes indoors. They’re just not comfortable. You’ll understand why My Side of the Mountain hit a chord immediately wit...
