Readers love to hear your characters talk. They might know nothing about the art of creating a believable plot. They may not care about whether your settings are 'factually correct'. But they do know how real people talk. They hear it every day.

This informative and entertaining book guides you through the pitfalls of creating great dialogue, and suggests ways to tighten the words you put into the mouths of those who live on your pages.

It won’t bore you with examples from dusty old books or lecture you like you're sat in some creative writing class. What it will do – I hope – is help you turn good stuff into diamonds.

There are chapters on dialogue tags, exposition, repetition for effect, personality, and how to get humour right (and wrong).

It ends with useful advice to help format dialogue and give your finished work a professional edge.
