You're right- pure dialog is like its own genre, but fun practice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52364159500107393.post-21016411287606071582012-10-22T10:57:57.183-07:002012-10-22T10:57:57.183-07:00Thanks, Casey!

I've finished the draft of "The Ninja Librarian Returns" and now the real work begins :pRebecca M.

The story really came to life then.<br /><br />Good work! I wish blogger had a "like" button the same as Wordpress. Oh well. You can imagine me hitting the "like" button.

Have to convey a lot that isn't said.<br /><br />I think part of why I did SF is that although I don't usually write it, I've read lots. So I could make a rather derivative story easily and focus on the exercise part.Rebecca M.

Must...Too funny, we are all on a sci-fi kick today! Must be the moon's orbit or the position of the planets and stars! :-)I think you did great on the dialogue! I loved all 3, but the dialogue really caught my eye. I love the interaction between characters. And I think some of our best writing comes from the quick burst of whatever pops in our heads.khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02039448074178382326noreply@blogger.com
