Screenwriting : Today's Wish and Creative Tip by Laurie Ashbourne

Laurie Ashbourne

Today's Wish and Creative Tip

I wish you all a ten-page Tuesday and if you can't do that work on your dialogue. Separate out your speaking lines with no character headings, and set it aside for a bit. When you come back to it, if you cannot distinguish who is talking -- your character voices aren't distinct enough.

John Garrett

Well, I have already started revisiting the dialogue of something I wrote about 9 months ago as I heard it calling me last night. I instantly saw some dialogue issues that need some lovin' ! So I am on it. Thank you so much for the lovely wish.

David Levy

I'm always revisiting dialogue so each character is their own person. Thanks for the constant tips and reminders, Laurie!

Laurie Ashbourne

My pleasure. Enjoy your day.
