1. 1. Writing Dialogue

   

   A concise, practical guide to crafting believable, revealing dialogue that advances plot and illuminates character, emphasizing listening for natural speech, rhythm, subtext, and specificity; it shows how to avoid common pitfalls like on-the-nose exposition or heavy dialect, offers concrete techniques for using tags, beats, silence, and pacing, and provides examples and exercises to help writers shape distinct voices and make conversation do dramatic work rather than merely transmit information.
