This is designed to be a 5-week intensive course meeting on 5 consecutive Saturdays. Dialogue in short fiction is a thankless art: when it's done smoothly, it becomes so hypnotic that readers barely notice the craft. But when done wrong, it can derail the entire story. In this class, we will fine-tune the art of the conversation in fiction. We will discuss how to make dialogue sound natural, how to invest a conversation with stakes, how to make two characters talking as compelling a thing to read as any explosion or car chase.
