I struggle everyday with in and sometimes all I have is page full of descriptions and KNOW I have make them speak. I often say if my characters could be telepathic it would work for me! Funny thing is - I get lots of comments that my dialogue is sparkling and easy - I wish it were as easy to write as it comes off... LOL. I think my strength would be descriptions and mood.

When you worry so much about how to do it right, you forget the most important thing: To write a story. My dialogue tends to be good. I write males better than females, and usually end up going back in and giving those girls a backbone. But I get carried away. I lose track, and meander off in all directions. That can be a good thing though. :) I’m really good at worrying that I’m not good enough. Smile
