If you’re in Ithaca, NY on Saturday, May 4, please join me and my fellow genre writers for a panel on writing dialogue.

It’s All In What You Say: Creating Believable Dialogue

A panel discussion by members of the Strictly Genre critique group on the ins and outs of crafting believable dialogue. Come learn how to create dialogue that snaps, crackles and pops with life in a variety of genres. We’ll look at what makes great dialogue, how to use dialogue to add to characterization, finding a character’s “voice,” the most common dialogue mistakes new writers make, and more! Panel members include Jackie Swift (moderator), Gigi Vernon, E.C. Barrett, and Summer Keown.

2:00 – 3:00pm @ Tompkins County Public Library, Borg Warner Room West
