Sol, I must tell you that this lesson has opened my eyes.  I was telling and never showing in my writing and now this realization has opened a new world.  I still have a lot to learn but thanks for this lesson.    Mike

Re: Lesson 4 - Show Versus Tell

I am so sorry I did not proofread my assignment before I turned it in now. I used the same piece, though quite longer than what has been requested, was a good piece, I felt like to work with show don't tell and then especially good for me to use for verb tense especially after realizing I had changed tenses several times without noticing. Sorry for the oversight. Please look at my post for the present and past tense versions. I like the past tense a lot better. I think it's easier to work with and write in that tense.
