Dialogue is one of the most powerful tools a writer has—it reveals character, advances plot, and immerses readers in the story. But writing realistic, engaging dialogue is harder than it looks.
In this talk we’ll cover the fundamentals of crafting dialogue that feels authentic, engaging, and purposeful, including how to:
Capture natural speech without it feeling “stilted” or forced
Balance dialogue with narration, action, and internal thought
Give each character a distinct voice, even in nonfiction interviews or memoir
Use subtext, rhythm, and pacing to make conversations feel alive
Whether you’re a brand-new writer or someone who’s been working on their craft for years, this talk will help you craft and strengthen the effect of your dialogue.
✍️ Writers of all levels welcome
🗣 Live Q&A included
☕ Drinks and snacks available for purchase in cafe.
All ages welcome (recommended age 16+)!
