I am trying to make my dialogic better Whispers erect helped a lot but I still have some questions.
In one of my stories I have three teddy bears. I named them 'Teddy', 'Bear' and 'Cubby'. ' Is that correct? No one is actually saying their name. It is just to distinguish one bears name from another.
How do you mark figures of speech when it is in narration form? If you mention scum of the earth but no one actually says it, then what?
I am trying to become a better writer but it is a long slog.
One other thing , when you describe something is it best just to use one adjective to do that so you do not have six or seven commas in one sentence?
I am sure He said, "It was a bright, glorious, cloudless, sunny, summer day." can get to get ridiculous.
