The Emotion Thesaurus has been one of my best purchases this year. I do intend to buy the other books in the series eventually too.
I think it would help if we got to look at some of your writing. Personally, I’m no pro but if you pm me a google doc I’ll gladly take a look.
Otherwise, the biggest advice I can give is also of the most cliche writing advice out there— show don’t tell.
Don’t tell us your character is sad, happy, or mad, show us the tears beginning to take shape, the twinkle in his eyes, his smile widening, his face beginning to turn red.
I recommend checking out the emotion thesaurus,it’s helped me out quite a bit.
