I actually think I’m going to go back and read the rest of the posts on dialogue. It took a long time for me to even come close to writing good dialogue. A whole unpublished suppar manuscript to be exact LOL.
2 things that I tend to do now, to help create more dimensional characters.
1. In the rough rough draft, I write out JUST the dialogue scenes. In my head I can think about what kind of blocking there should be, but instead of getting lost in writing out a bunch of stuff like what’s going on around them, I just crank out their speech first. Later, I can go back and add in things.
2. I tend to use body language to show what a character looks like and thinks and who they are etc, along with the dialogue.
Great post. Thank you!

Other tips I will definitely use in the future. Thanks for the thought provoking commentary.

I have to check my progress so far and go back and see if I should adjust anything. I have tried to picture my character as realistic as possible in a fantasy world. So I try to have my dialogue as natural as possible but I am sure there is always room for improvement. Thanx for a great article!
