    in the topic When is it okay to tell instead of show? in the forum New Writers Q & A

    Is it ever acceptable to do a lot of telling in a story rathing than always showing? I'm at a point where I need to present some backstory to the reader in order to get to the real part of the story. Is all 'telling' a no-no in modern fiction?
