Tips for Writing Effective Dialogue

August 8, 2016 by Craig DiLouie 2 Comments

At the When Words Collide writing convention in Calgary this weekend, I’ll be giving a one-hour talk presenting 45 tips for writing effective dialogue, distilled from more than a dozen sources. The talk takes place Saturday, August 12 at 12 noon in the Fairview Room at Delta Calgary South. The con is sold out, but if you’re going, I hope to see you there.

    For those of us who are far, far away and cannot attend, will you be able to link to something after? Thanks in advance and… umm… if it’s “break a leg” for actors, what would it be for writers? Stick to your quills? I’ll go with that.
