Show is Tell, was a very good article.I think writers of my generation learned the 'show don't tell' rule along with passive voice vs. active voice. Famous writers break those rules constantly, but only if they have a style that makes it work. I'm reading a Faulkner novel "Light in August" and it's a good example of how to break some of those rules and still make it work.
