Whether you write novels or prefer writing short stories, it’s important to know how to write dialogue in a story. Dialogue is one of those key elements of fiction that a lot of writers struggle with. It’s difficult to make the things your characters say smack of real life—to convey the important details of the story without sounding forced or fake.

Here are 5 great ways to make sure your dialogue sounds convincing:

So I was just spring cleaning my bookmarks page and thought of sharing a couple of awesome links I found before that may be helpful for writers.
- Little Details - contain posts on several topics on the smallest detail when writing a story such as 1940’s British slang words,…

so awhile ago someone asked me to go through process/resources for what i do when i write. this isn’t for everybody, everybody has different motivators. but some of these links have been useful for me in the past.
- typing speed test - warm up your hands
- writing ergonomics - take care of yourself writing for long periods
- music to write by - put on a soundtrack that won’t distract
- writeroom - find a program that removes temptation to browse
- write or die - if you have trouble staying motivated
- word count meter - keep track of your progress
- stayfocused - lock yourself out of distracting sites (chrome only)
generally speaking, i just try to make sure i’m sitting properly, take regular breaks, have plenty of water at hand, and good music. the rest varies on just how much i’m feeling it on a given day, and how badly i need motivation. hopefully this will help!

Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the fire nation attacked. Only the avatar, master of all four elements, can stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years past and my brother and I discovered the new avatar, an airbender named Aang. And although his airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he’s ready to save anyone. But I believe Aang can save the world.
With the sudden spike in the presence of A:TLA on my dash with A:TLOK’s release, I figured it was high time to make this post, because there are shows that you should watch, shows that you need to watch, shows that your life will never forgive you for not letting in it, and then there is Avatar: the Last Airbender.
