I agree with you Bridgit; extra detail may detract from your plot.

I didn't think Eve's original post was about Vonnegut but on one of the
tips Vonnegut gives for writing fiction shared by Chris Kuell. I must
have misunderstood. Chris's post with these tips seemed to prompt Eve's
discussion, which is what prompted me to continue the thread. My advice
was to know your details but only include what is necessary to story and
character development.

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

Bridget, You may have missed it then. I was not commenting on Vonnegut.
Never heard of him and don't really care about him. (did look him up and
think he was on the fringe of sanity, but that has nothing to do with
anything)   What I was saying is that we should use this as a sharing
prompt since the person I had arranged for in December backed out. All I
was saying is that I wanted everyone to share their own personal tip for
writing. Mine was to pay attention to details. Everyone may not agree
with each other's advice, but that is okay. Let's share what we use or
think is important. I am leaving town tomorrow and will not be on for
some time so I am hoping that through the month people will participate.
Get the ball rolling girl. Add to the list. What is your tip? Eve
