Goodreads asked Rachel Richards:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Rachel Richards The most helpful lesson I learned is "show, don't tell." For example, instead of writing, "The teacher was angry when Timmy was late to school," you might say, "Timmy burst through the classroom door breathing heavily. The teacher grimaced."
