Everybody knows that when you write fiction, you should show and not tell.
Except for the times when you’re supposed to go ahead and tell, because showing wouldn’t be efficient or make sense.
So basically what I’m saying here is: badges for all! Hooray!
The “showing” and “telling” merit badges are part of the writers series. The badge may be posted on your site or blog. Tell us why you’ve earned (or will never earn) it in the comments.

I never understood the phrase “Show, Don’t Tell”. Aren’t we supposed to be telling stories?
