"Dialoguing IT" or converting slow-paced narrative, passive, tell all scenes into fast-paced, active, dramatic dialouge scenes. Rob Walker has over 30 years of experience teaching Creative Writing and his resume includes an MA from Northwestern University and 50 published novels along with the how-to DEAD On WRITING. Writing Craft delves into a technique that is foolproof and in Part I and Part II there are clear cut examples of how this method works to develop a slow and annoying scene into a fast and entertaining scene. Everyone always tells writers to SHOW not TELL, but few have ever clearly shown how the professional, commercially successful author reaches this level of expertise. In short the brain is lazy and wants to paint a scene too fast, falling into poor writing habits, but when such a scene on re-draft is "dialouged" WOW, look out.
