Just wondering... I'm six chapters into the first Enigma Files book; the characters are cemented and have distinct voices. The first signs of a mystery are showing. But I have a question...
In order to keep my writing fresh and fast-paced, a lot of my description has been cut. Sure, this seems to improve the flow... But it also seems to be making the story 90% dialogue.
Is this good or bad? Obviously I don't want it to suffer from 'Talking Head Syndrome', but what if I can't add much description without bogging down the story...?
