​Why to use show, don't Tell

When writing a story, describing how a character is feeling is a key skill. Most authors don’t just state how they are feeling. For example, they probably wouldn’t say ‘James felt scared’. Instead, they try to use description to help the reader understand how the character is feeling. They will often describe their facial expressions, what is happening in their body and perhaps even how their voice sounds.
