  5. Let’s compare… “Then an old lady came out of the room and screamed.” VS “Sarah’s weight was on her cane as she made her way out of the room. Her eyes flew open when she saw the floor and her chin began to quake. ‘Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!’ she cried, at the top of her lungs.”

  6. Using dialogue to show events: My mom wouldn’t stop asking me about coffee. She was embarrassed that I didn’t have any to offer Aunt Gloria. I told her to forget the coffee. I explained that I needed her to send me twenty dollars. I told her I needed to leave. She told me that my job painting curbs was good and that I had told her I made good money. I told her I was serious and that I really needed the money. I told her I wanted to come to stay with her for a few weeks. VERSUS

  7. “Forget the coffee! I need you to send me twenty bucks. I gotta get out of this place!” “But you gottagood job doing the curbs like you do,” she said. “You say it’s really good money.” “Mom, this is serious,” I yelled. I need money now! I want to stay with you for a couple of weeks.” - Gary Soto’s Buried Onions
