The best fiction writing tips I've received (so far)
In summary:
1. Show, don't tell
2. Avoid adverbs
3. Rethink passive voice
4. Edit out filter words
5. Vary sentence length
6. Look out for repetitive starts
7. Recognise your overused words
8. Make dialogue count
What are the best tips/advice you've received? Have any transformed how you write? (For me it was #2).
