Voices and Silence - Mastering the Art of Purposeful Dialogue

Saturday 20 February 2021, 10.00AM to 1.00pm

Speaker(s): Sue Cooper

Dialogue in fiction does so much more than convey information.  It's a vital part of storytelling - essential for creating character; furthering plot and drawing readers into the heart of your story.  Following the session, 'Writing with Attitude', this one explores 'Voice' and 'Silence' - how these and other key aspects of dialogue can make your stories grip the reader.  You do not need to have attended 'Writing with Attitude'; we'll use new exercises and examples to learn new essential tips for strong and purposeful dialogue.
