Today’s post is a summary of posts on writing dialogue, resources for novelists on Writer’s Fun Zone.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Recently, I created a new free mini-course, The Writer Discovery Mini-Course (sign up here)<\/a>, and have been learning a lot about the writers sharing their replies with me.<\/p>\n

Thanks to everyone who have been sharing their answers with me. I answer each email individually, though it may take me some time.<\/p>\n

Just know, the very fact you take the time to answer the questions and send me the answer is an important step in making your dreams a reality.<\/p>\n

One student asked me to share resources on writing dialogue, one of the central components of fiction.<\/p>\n

In modern fiction, dialogue is a central component and serves two key functions in our stories:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To reveal character<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. To advancing the plot, either via action or to increase our worry for the characters<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    My husband and co-teacher in our courses and group mastermind program<\/a>, likes to add a third function: humor.<\/p>\n

    Your story’s dialogue is prime real estate<\/strong> to make a good scene great. I consider it part of your story’s action<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
