Hey, today I just have a small little question. How "detailed" should you be when you show your characters' actions? Should you show every single step, or only the most important ones?
Example:
"He went over to the table and grabbed the plate. Then he went back to the drawer and put it in."
or
"He grabbed the plate (from the table), then put it in the drawer."
The latter obviously flows a lot better. But would it be "imprecise" writing? What do you say?
Cheers
