The ‘Ol He Said, She Said: Writing Better Dialogue

$15.00

A two-hour online seminar to significantly improve your dialogue.

Description

From the perspective as both an educator and journal editor, I find that a seminar on dialogue is one of the most useful lessons to deliver, as the small but important edits we’ll explore can make a significant impact on a piece of writing.

In this two-hour online seminar, we’ll tackle both dialogue mechanics, as well as its content. The first half of the seminar will include speaker attributes, dialogue tags, and everything else involved in how speech is placed on the page. After a short break, we’ll consider how to make natural-sounding dialogue that enhances the character delivering it. This workshop gives the writer the ability to significantly improve their dialogue with some simple but imperative edits.
