This month: Write Rocking Dialogue with Tom Leveen

Learn the basics of what makes dialogue between two characters really stand out, taught by an acclaimed novelist with more than two decades of live stage experience, where the spoken word is so essential. Tom will discuss methods of improving first- and third-person narrative, how to manipulate white space on the page, and more.

Tom is the author of seven novels with imprints of Penguin Random House and Simon & Schuster, and two with Abrams and Sky Horse. He has written for the comic book SPAWN with Todd McFarlane, and taught writing at conferences, conventions, schools, and universities around the country for ten years.
