Writer Unleashed #239: 3 Quick Tips For Writing Stronger Dialogue
When dialogue works, it feels alive. It's charged with tension. It reveals character, drives the plot, and leaves space for the reader to lean in and feel what’s left unsaid. But when it doesn’t? It falls flat, feels forced, or gets skimmed over entirely.
In this episode, I’m breaking down three essential tips to help you write dialogue that feels authentic, but curated. Natural, but emotionally charged. We’ll look at what to cut, how to shape each exchange, and how to infuse even simple moments with meaning and momentum.
Whether you're deep into your draft or revising a scene that feels off, these tips will help you make your dialogue tighter, tenser, and more dynamic.
