In this 6-week course with author Amy Lovat, you’ll explore the fundamentals of dialogue and character so you can work on driving the narrative forward and engaging your reader.

Dialogue is not just what characters say, it’s who they are. As Stephen King says in On Writing, ‘… dialogue gives your cast their voices, and is crucial in defining their characters.’ What would they say out loud, and what would they keep to themselves? What happens when they say one thing, but do another?

Creating realistic characters who your readers can connect to, care about and invest in should be the top goal when writing fiction. The better you know your characters, the more they come to life on the page.

Dialogue and character are intertwined in the craft of writing: realistic dialogue breathes life into your characters, but you also need to truly know your characters to understand how they’d communicate with people and the world around them.

This writing course, Online: Dialogue and Character Fundamentals with Amy Lovat, will take place online.
