I'm most likely not going, since it's such late notice for my hubby and his work. I'm sad I won't be able to meet you! Hopefully there will be an epic book signing or something later this year and we can finally meet! :) Good luck presenting! I would be freaking out!!

I think we sometimes forget about what dialogue is supposed to accomplish, and we end up using it as a way to fill space or explain emotions (in a telling rather than showing way).Tiana Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13568247032288076461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306182475647359241.post-2544369346121540202011-05-10T13:09:36.438-07:002011-05-10T13:09:36.438-07:00That last point is the hardest part for me, becaus...That last point is the hardest part for me, because I naturally want them to say things the way <i>I</i> think it should be said. However, I've found that the better I know the character and think about his or her philosophy and personality, the easier it is to come up with the right words.Reecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16610242701129500313noreply@blogger.com
