Hi,
It has been a while since I last posted on the forum.
I'm in the process of submitting my short stories and I've received some useful feedback which has helped me improve them.
One of my stories is uses a single protagonist and he is stuck in a closet for the majority of the story. If he leaves the closet he will die. Feedback I've received is that 'it has too much telling'. I want to improve my story but I'm not sure how I get around this. How do I avoid 'telling' when he has no one else to interact with?
Any advice on this is appreciated!
