I'm a budding fiction writer and I have written in private my whole life due to a massive fear of rejection. But I decided recently that, rejection be damned, I'm going to go for it.
Looking forward to getting involved in the community here ๐

09.11.2024 15:01 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Possibly the most interesting thing for me about a writer is how natural their dialogue is. Nell Zink is a favourite of mine with that, as it just zips off the page with a beautiful rhythm.
Any suggestions for authors who are particularly good at writing dialogue?
