But what does this actually mean, and how can you apply the concept to your writing? The differences are usually not so easily spelled out.

The differences are usually not so easily spelled out. This bundle is designed to break down the aspects of "showing" vs. "telling" so that you can create a convincing and believable world for your readers to explore. We've updated the WD Shop's classic "Show" Don't "Tell" bundle for 2023, to feature six all-new OnDemand webinars, in addition to two digital editions of Writer's Digest magazine. 

How to Evoke Emotion in Every Scene 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value

Emotion must be demonstrated, not told, to the reader, and there are many powerful tools to do so without falling back on narrative short-cuts or blunt expressions of feeling. In this OnDemand Webinar, Jordan Rosenfeld brings her experience as an author of six books on the craft of writing, and three novels, to discuss writing compelling characters and expressing emotion without relying on overt sentiment or melodrama. 
Write Deeper Characters: Creating Internal Conflict 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value
Each individual is driven by a profound inner yearning that defines their dream of life.  This core inner conflict, the drive to pursue the promise of life and an equal and opposite drive to minimize the pain of life, informs the character’s sense of lack at the outset of your story, which informs their need to act. In this OnDemand webinar, author David Corbett discusses how to conceive, create, and develop these counteracting forces.  
Visual Storytelling: How to Write Compelling and Visual Fiction 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value
Want to write a story with scenes that keep the reader turning the pages? In this OnDemand webinar, Chris Mooney discusses the techniques used by screenwriters - techniques that can be used in fiction to create compelling scenes and characters.  
Emotion vs Feeling in Fiction 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value 
In the “real” world we often consider emotions and feelings much the same thing. In fiction, however, emotions and feelings relate to distinct experiences and evoke different reactions from readers. In this workshop, award-winning author and teacher David Corbett will guide participants on how to distinguish emotion from feeling, how to root each in character, how to reveal each on the page, and how to deepen the reader’s experience accordingly. 
Writer's Digest March/April 2022 
Digital Edition
$7.99 value
Point of view is one of the first things writers learn about creative writing, yet it’s also one of the hardest things to master. This issue explores the many facets of POV, and also includes articles on how using beta readers can give writers a different point of view of their own work, best tips for interviewing from WD Editor-at-Large Tyler Moss, and debut novelist Amanda Jayatissa on how writing her sometimes unlikeable narrator in My Sweet Girl allowed her to see the world differently. 
Writer's Digest May/June 2021
Digital Edition
$7.99 value
The May/June 2021 issue of Writer's Digest aims to answer questions about topics that pique writers' curiosity and provide resources that will enable curiosity to be a force of inspiration for your work. Plus we explore the value of mentors and how to find one, and in honor of April Fool's Day, Mark Shatz (bestselling author of Comedy Writing Secrets) shares exercises for writing funny.  
Body, Mind, and Soul: Depth in Your Storytelling 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value
In this OnDemand webinar, Richard Thomas discusses the different layers of an effective story; to entertain and keep the pages turning, through setting, sensory detail, and action (body), eventually working in an emotional core to go deeper (soul), followed by a unique concept that keeps your audience guessing and thinking, leading to a denouement and epiphany that stimulates the brain (mind).  
How to Write Great Characters for Great Stories 
OnDemand Webinar
$79.99 value
In this OnDemand webinar, you’ll discover the art of creating engaging characters that will hold your readers spellbound. Learn secrets of psychology and human nature to make your characters more three-dimensional and relatable.

Powerful Mug Warmer with Excellent Heat Output and Large Heating Surface
Color: Wood, Color: Wood
CAUTION: Unplug when not using. It is very easy to activate or turn on by mistake. Simply brushing up next to it will turn it on. Nonetheless, I use this SWEETFULL coffee mug warmer every morning and afternoon. It’s usually one of the first things I turn on so I can preheat my latte cup before pulling espresso. I like my lattes very hot, and preheating the cup helps prevent heat loss during extraction. I also use it as a candle warmer as an alternative to open flame, which I prefer for indoor air quality. The heat output is impressive. Even on the lowest setting, it gets very hot and reaches usable temperature quickly. The large heating surface is a major advantage. My latte and cappuccino cups have a wide mouth, and this warmer heats the entire base evenly rather than just the center, which makes a noticeable difference in temperature retention. Warm-up time is reasonable, though slightly faster heating would make it even better, especially during busy mornings when I’m trying to get out the door. That said, it’s not slow enough to be a real drawback, and once it’s hot, it performs consistently. Overall, this is a strong performer that does exactly what it’s designed to do. It’s a great option for coffee lovers who want hotter drinks for longer, and for candle users who prefer a flame-free, cleaner alternative inside the home.

Best mug warmer I have tried
Color: Wood
I am retired and use my mug warmer pretty much all day. I normally start my day with a cup of coffee and then switch to tea the rest of the day. Even when I work on projects around the house or leave to run errands, there is a cup of something on the warmer. So there is basically a mug on the warmer from 7 am until midnight making a good quality mug warmer a necessity. I have tried two other mug warmers and with mixed results. The others I tried both turned on automatically activated by the weight of the mug which I did like. However, there we a few times when I left a mug on the warmer overnight so that design has it's flaws, and now that I have tried it, I prefer the four hour auto shut off feature of this model. I also like the three temperatures settings....a lot. The high temp setting (and it's hot) comes in real handy when you need to reheat a mug's contents after it shuts off when left unattended. I also use it when I make instant oatmeal in a ceramic bowl that has a thick bottom and it keeps the contents hot. Plus the middle and low end settings are nice so you can change the temperature of the contents to suit your mood. One design feature I have really come to appreciate is the no slip bottom. This mug warmer stays put and does not slide around on the table top. A real nice feature if you have furniture made from wood or other finish that might otherwise get scratched. The soft touch switch on this mug warmer blends in with the wood design of the model I have which does make it a bit harder to see, especially in low light settings. However, it is directly opposite the power cord so I have gotten use to locating it by feel and activating it by a swipe of one finger....it's pretty cool once you get used to it. Plus the indicator light is easy to see and know what setting the warmer is on. After having used this mug warmer for a while now I have really come to appreciate the quality and features this unit has for the price. The others I tried were as much as $10 more and not nearly as nice...and obviously did not last very long. One thing worth pointing out is the hot setting is very hot. If you have small toddlers in the house who use things to help them stand up and balance, this might not be the best model to choose. But that is the only real negative I can think of really. In my opinion, and this is all about that, this is a great mug warmer at any price point and I can recommend it without hesitation.

Worth more than $20 I paid!
Color: Black
I was very surprised with how expensive this felt and looked while still being affordable. It has several levels and kept my coffee hot. I love my coffee really hot and this kept it there for hours. Word of advice not all coffee cups will work it needs to be all ceramic or glass and cup handle will get hot.

My tea stays warm to the bottom of the cup!!!
I am so glad I purchased this mug water. I drink tea all day but it cools down quickly. Since I purchased this mug warmer my tea stays hot to the bottom of the cup. The temperature is adjustable so you can keep your drink at your desired temperature. The top is glass and wipes clean easily. I like the rubber gasket that fits on top of the warmer. It keeps your mug in the center of the warmer and should you have a spill it catches the liquid. I've been using it every day for over a month now and it's going strong and is reliable. Perfect for personal use or as a gift.
