In this class we'll dig into what makes dialogue work in fiction and how to make it work in our own writing. We'll start by studying key, dialogue-heavy scenes from great writers, and progress from there to work on our own scenes with a chance to write and revise. The goal is for us to leave the class with a short revised scene of our own!
• In-Class Writing Lift: Heavy
• Homework: Optional
• Workshopping Drafts: None
