5 days of tips to developing character with dialogue: or dialogue to the nth power

You all are in for a treat this week.

And I mean it.

I've loaded up a full 5 days of authors talking about dialogue and character. If you are a writer struggling with dialogue (and who doesn't) you'll get the skinny on what drives the dialogue from a thriller writer, fantasy, steampunk perspective.

If you're a reader, you get to see the behind-the-scenes process that streaks through an author's psyche as they work to deliver realistic characters you can love.

You know I don't like to flood in boxes with blog posts…but I think it's an exciting series with something for everyone to mull over. Please make a note to visit and if you like, please do share. These authors are all worth following.

Schedule:

 Feb 20 is bestselling thriller author: Mel Comley discusses dialogue
Feb 21 is the incomparable Walter Schuler : a gent whose world creation is just delicious.
Feb 22 we have Vivienne Tuffnell who writes from a more literary place about characterization and periphery characters
Feb 23 Gordon Bonnet will discuss dialogue from a speculative fiction writer viewpoint. (I love his blog)
Feb 24 is steampunk author AJ Barnett who offers up a whole heap of info on dialogue.
