April 25, 2008, Newsletter Issue #159: Dialogue--Tread Lightly
Tip of the Week
Dialogue must be carefully written, paced, and chosen. Speech in fiction is NOT the same as speech in real life. Dialogue should only be used when narrative summary won´t suffice. It exists to give flavor to a character´s speech and to illuminate his or her motivations--try to avoid using it to simply convey information.
