I came across this video last night and thought, "Yes! Thank you!" This guy (and Lee Child) share my disagreement with the saying, "Show, Don't Tell."
As Child puts it, "You tell a story. You don't show a story."
That saying might apply to visual story-telling such as film and TV, not so much the written word.
Anyway, here's the link to Brandon McNulty's video.
