It's as if I'm there watching because I visualize as I go and listen to the conversations. I know that sounds a bit weird, but - and I'm not saying it's always that way - that's how it is for me; dialogue often is easier than telling or scene setting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785012510865323096.post-47947319088060016752012-07-12T07:58:29.555-04:002012-07-12T07:58:29.555-04:00Love your example about Bob above.

Reading them in someone else's writing really helps me learn what not to do. And good call out -- that mannerisms should be considered along with the spoken word.Karen S.

Person A should want to accomplish something that is at odds with what Person B wants to accomplish. And yes, I look out for ASYB's, "As you know, Bob, you've been my father since the day I was born."<br /><br />Then when a book is finished, I go back and look at dialogue, body movements, and mannerisms for each character. So if one character says, "Ohmigorsh!" and twirls her hair around her finger when she is nervous, they don't ALL do it.Beverly Diehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392288953821757887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785012510865323096.post-26359625255399130812012-07-11T14:53:51.116-04:002012-07-11T14:53:51.116-04:00I just finished helping my nephew, who is 22 and a...I just finished helping my nephew, who is 22 and autistic, to self-publish his first book, The Magic Quest by Matthew Schilling. I'd love to win Seize the Story for both of us to read as he works on his sequel. It's been really intriguing to watch his mind work as he tries to corral his ideas into a plot and come up with realistic dialogue.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17711673920761639701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785012510865323096.post-6992648728924902632012-07-11T14:52:08.497-04:002012-07-11T14:52:08.497-04:00I love writing dialogue.
