Metro Denver Connect and Critique: Show AND Tell, the What, Why, How, and When
Nov 15, 2025
Online event
Unlimited seats
When: Saturday, November 15, 10:00-11:30am Where: Zoom Beth Anderson will lead this invaluable presentation on that age-old dilemma - showing vs telling! As writers, we've all heard it: "Show, don't tell." Sounds easy, so why is it so hard? Join us as we unpack the idea and examine what it means for writers, why it's so important, how to do it, and when. We'll look at "show and tell" as a spectrum rather than an either-or to better understand how this essential craft skill impacts pacing, characterization, voice, conflict, the arc, and so much more. To register, please RSVP here: https://scbwi.zoom.us/meeting/register/xhj9P0sLS1uheJbYW2p01w#/registration The Zoom link will be sent to you after you RSVP. Contact Stacey Simmons or Jenny Crooks-Johnson with any questions or concerns at [email protected].
