We’ve all heard it: “Show, don’t tell!” – the ultimate creative writing technique. ‘Showing’ makes scenes come alive, characters more real, and everything in your story more vivid. But what exactly does that mean? How exactly does one ‘show’? And…well, aren’t there times you really should ‘tell’? It’s called storytelling after all!

Showing what your characters are thinking, feeling and doing entertains your reader and brings them closer to the narrative. More importantly, it stops your story from feeling stodgy and boring – making your manuscript stand out (for all the right reasons!) to prospective agents and publishers.

This online seminar is for anyone who has ever nodded sagely along to “Show, don’t tell!” but secretly wondered just HOW to apply it to their writing. And your guide is multi award-winning, bestselling author Pamela Freeman – as together we FOCUS ON… Show Don’t Tell.

Hundreds of students have already completed this seminar. We have received overwhelming positive feedback on the strategies shared by Pamela and the practical advice she provided. This seminar is now available for purchase. By purchasing this seminar you will also receive the handouts and have access for 12 months.

“Thanks, Pamela. The clarity and efficiency of your insightful ‘Focus on Show, Don’t Tell’ presentation has helped me enormously. Your enthusiasm is infectious. This is the first time I’ve understood the nuts and bolts of show, don’t tell. You’re inspiring.”
