All talk, no action.

Yeah yeah. You shuddup.
I'm having this problem with my story. The characters are yakkin way too much in my attempt to give some background. There's a lot of information to get across, and I haven't figured out too many other ways of making it clear to the reader. So I'm stuck. I have my story laid out, but need to interject some room in the middle. I think I'll quit for tonight and go pout with a novel.
