1. Use it to drive action or character forward

2. Break it up with action or description

3. Pay attention to dialogue tags

Page 11: He said, she said

Dialogue has a purpose

It sounds ‘real’, but it isn’t

Cut out the dull parts

How does your dialogue move forward the plot or develop characters?

Page 12: He said, she said

Describe where the characters are

Describe what they’re doing while they speak

“His father carried on cutting the vegetables. ‘Ken!’ he said. ‘It’s not his business.’

Page 13: He said, she said

‘He said, she said’

Vary tags- but not too much!

Omit tags when it’s obvious

Avoid adverbs

Page 14: He said, she said

Write a piece of dialogue, bearing in mind the 3 ‘rules’.

Jay and his father have an argument

about the fact that Jay has refused to take over the restaurant. It ends with Jay saying that he will investigate the fire, and Louie telling him not to get involved.
