as someone who's favourite part of writing is dialogue, here's what I like to do 🕺

if there's only two characters present, you really don't even need dialogue tags, just one for the first person to speak. then the rest of the dialogue is interspersed with action.

"How long have you been awake?" whispered Atlas. “Didn’t sleep.” “How come?” Kit put his arm under his head like a bony pillow. “I’m used to the great outdoors. I’m surprised you managed these harsh conditions compared to your lavish lifestyle at home.” “I’ve never been so tired in all my life. I could have collapsed anywhere.” He yawned, as if to prove his point.

definitely a 'sighed' overuser I will admit but my babies are tired

in like 5th class we were introduced to the concept of not using said all the time in creative writing and we weren't allowed use it anymore and the teacher put up a poster with 'Said is dead' written on it with a load of replacements for said on it and now whenever I use said in writing I feel like I'm rebelling

when hamsters are born they see a silver thread that connects them to their gruesome and peculiar death and they follow it like soldiers marching to war.

I don't know if you've done this before but what are some good ways to describe speech?

Ways to Describe Speech

-> feel free to edit and adjust pronouns as you see fit.

His voice was deep like the rumbling of the earth.

She had the voice of a singer, smooth and rich like chocolate.

Their voice reminded him of spring rain.

He often paused in his speaking, like a car radio that had lost signal.

She had a lilt to her voice that made it seem like she was asking a question.

Their voice was monotonous, threatening to put her to sleep with every word.

He couldn't put her voice into words. It was... otherworldly.

Her voice was brittle, as if she were on the verge of tears.

Their voice was authoritative. Their words carried like a loud command.

His voice, unapologetic and unwavering, made her shrink back.

Her voice was barely above a whisper.

Their words were cold with anger.
