#227: Say Less, Mean More: The Secret to Writing Great Dialogue 16:01

for 2 dager siden16:01

16:01

Writing dialog can feel deceptively simple. After all, it's just people talking, right? But in far too many stories, characters are recapping the plot or revealing too much of what they're thinking or feeling. The dialogue is pure exposition, doing too much of the story's heavy lifting. Great dialogue works on multiple levels, often saying more in what's unsaid than what is said. So in this episode, we're going to look at common pitfalls. And I'll show you how to write conversations that carry emotional weight, deepen your characters and spark new turns in your story. So you can write believable, compelling dialogue.

What makes it tricky is that you’re not just telling the story of what happened . You’re telling it through two lenses : The younger self who lived it. And the older self who looks back with reflection, wisdom, and maybe even regret. So in today’s episode, we’ll explore how to unlock the full potential of a retrospective narrator. You’ll learn to craft a voice that harnesses both the younger self and the wiser self. Episode Website Not sure where to begin writing? Need a way in to your story? Or a way through?
