There's always a way. FOr example, "I heard the doorbell ring, and I started to shiver as I got up to answer it." Instead say, "Just then, shivers went up my spine as the doorbell rang. Trying to calm my shaking hands, I opened the door." Do you understand? For me, it's not always possible to show EVERYTHING, but I do believe people like to read things without too much embellishment either. So, of course, there is a middle ground, especially with memoirs.

Is there a way to create a middle ground of showing and telling? Sort of like combining both drafts into one. There are times that showing is better than telling, what you have to do is figure out where it's better for either one in your draft. I really hope this made sense.
