Good morning to everyone. Are you ready to get emotional? Fabulous. Today’s writing exercise is all about practicing or showing and not telling. Tone and inflection, facial expressions, body movements all of those things and more can convey our emotion. The only thing that can’t is the actual name of the emotion. So shall we see what we are working with?

Now there is a fun one to write. And I suppose there are different types of horrified aren’t there. You could go horror movie style or old school with a dignified society matron confronted with a gross act of impropriety. I’ll let you figure out where you are going as I set off on my own show don’t tell. Have fun with it and as always, happy writing.
