WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a difficult conversation between two characters without using any dialogue tags.

Dialogue tags describe the speech - 'he whispered', 'she murmered', 'they said' etc. Removing these indicators will encourage you to make the dialogue speak for itself, instead of relying on tags to describe and clarify the intent behind the words.

Stars Lie and So Do I

The night rippled ahead of Ben and Lucy, two people destined for each other but life seems to keep getting in their way.


Ben: “The stars, can’t you see them Lucy? They’re shining extra bright tonight for a reason, and that is because I love you.”


Though Lucy is biting her insides, as a secret is killing her heart.


Lucy: “Ben, there is something that I have to tell you.”


Ben: “What is it?”

The drive

As her entire world shattered infront of her eyes all she could do is sit in his car and stare.. where exactly? - She had no idea. As the constant denies blurted out his mouth trying to explain that he didn’t cheat. She could only sit there and stare as the radio was still blasting deafeningly loud music. Soon after the boy realised she wasn’t buying his excuses he started to disclose apologies. H...

The Story of Stars

I told the star a story

One made from ink and time

A story that I told him

A story I couldn’t rhyme

A girl once loved a man

A man once took this girl

Thought to make her his wife

But killed before he could try

The star then blinked out

Of the cold night sky

It’s light dimmed

As it began to cry

I told the star a story

Of love that was gone

It went all wrong

And the star wept

All through the night
