Quick tips: Check on your dialogue, crisis point, and theme

The June 2021 edition of Desmond’s Drops is now up on Writer Unboxed.

Desmond Hall's first video covers how to make your dialogue meaningful — that is, ensuring your reader will always want to know how a conversation will end.

He also shares how to evaluate whether you've successfully portrayed the "dark night of the soul" — the moment in which your character's success seems the least likely — and your novel's theme. 

You can watch the videos below and at Writer Unboxed, where Hall’s fellow writers have chimed in in the comments.
