Write depicted scenes and depicted dialogues: the which thread elements of a point "between lines" when reading, without explicitly "pointing out;" as in narrating a story.
Write implicitly as to a point by employing depicted scenes and depicted dialogue of character sets in writing to outline a "big picture" upon completion of reading a piece.
Write stories in present tense.
For example:
The man slips his feet out from his slippers, sits down in an easy chair, reaches for a cigarette out of a pack on a table next to the chair, slides one out of the pack, lights it with a match retrieved from his vest pocket after fumbling around for a light and puffs easing back into his chair at home.
Followed by THIS narrative:
He says to his wife seated on a nearby love seat that he has had a long day when she questions him about reaching for a cigarette.
Or,
Followed by THIS dialogue:
"Honey? Why do you have to reach for a cigarette as soon as you sit down?" his wife asks from a nearby love seat in the dimly lit living space of their house on a winter's night.
"I've had a long day."
