Conversation dialogue too, since my characters never sound human when they talk to each other

I normally have something happen outside of the inner dialogue- someone speaks, the wind blows off a hat, a dog barks, etc. to move on from exposition. Pacing is something I struggle with, I kind of just resign myself to the pacing not being great in the first draft because I know once I finish and reread the whole book I can point out the issues and edit

Screw everything and PLEASE give advice on how to write dialogues

Dialogue omg umm

Thank you!!

Tumblr is pretty good for that sort of advice? I'll go looking for something

Thanks issy!!

how to write dialogue on Tumblr

I can do everything in a story (pacing, transitioning, opening, concluding, twists) EXCEPT for writing casual conversations between characters because I end up making them sound super robotic/ make the story very dialogue-heavy which I hate.

TYSMM

I always break up dialogue with little actions which makes it flow soooo much better

Yeah, that helps a lot

I can't write a conversation between multiple characters at ALL

The best I've ever done is getting two of them to talk😭

Lmao you've just made me realise that I hardly ever write a conversation btween more than 2 people help

LMAO time to look for more dialogue writing tips I guess😭
