This week, the guys dive back into craft after a wonderful discussion with author Tracy Cross, continuing the discussion on dialogue and its components.

They discuss direct or quoted speech, indirect or reported speech, and differentiate between dialogue beats (snippets of action performed by the character as they speak) and dialogue tags (said, yelled, cried, laughed, screamed, etc). They talk about the importance of rhythm and pacing and dialogue's impact on how a chapter progresses, and more. So check out this week's discussion on dialogue and let us know what you think.
