Try your hand at writing dialogue








Today, you are going to apply what you've learned about dialogue to write the dialogue in a scene.

Your dialogue must include:

  • There must be at least two people speaking/engaging in a conversation.
  • Each person must speak at least 5 times.
  • Consider how you will show the reader HOW each character is speaking.
  • Correct formatting must be used for each line of dialogue.
  • The three formats discussed in class must be included at least once. 
  • Use a variety of tags and don't overuse them!

Need some inspiration to get you started?  Check out these visual prompts:
