Writing Better Dialogue

The Career Author Podcast is a podcast where co-authors J. Thorn and Zach Bohannon share their struggles and successes as full-time authors, advice for improving your writing craft, and honest discussions of what it takes to build a successful career as an author.

“We all want to write better dialogue,” Zach screamed irritably. Ugh. Clunky dialogue can be the first thing that turns a reader off. Listen in as the guys discuss ways to improve yours.

In this episode, you’ll discover:How to use names in a realistic way.Why perfect grammar doesn’t always result in perfect dialogue.How to use your dialogue as a tool to drive the narrative.

Also, learn how a documentary film and podcast can help you declutter your life.
