I really liked a few sections in this chapter. I thought it was really helpful when the author explained how even though you could opt to summarize an interaction, it’s a much more immersive experience if you show the interaction instead. How the characters react during a conversation tells you a lot about their personality. I often feel like I’m repeating myself in dialogue with all the “I said, she said” type of interactions. It was really helpful to see examples where they interspersed dialogue with movement and actions in a scene. It’s also nice to see examples of where the dialogue is not directed from an individual each time (ex: “Line” he said vs. just “Line”). I also really liked the section on subtext. I love when there’s two stories going on at once, the one they’re telling you up front and the one they’re not.
