Strange, I know, but it helped me to gain a little perspective as to what it is I'm trying to do with writing and how I can more effectively get my husband on the same page as me.<br /><br />More on that later...The Scarlet Tarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799143168415937513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-18955027796196542412010-02-15T17:19:17.199-07:002010-02-15T17:19:17.199-07:00I enjoyed LTUE and hanging out with other writers....I enjoyed LTUE and hanging out with other writers. I learned a lot from the class, Acting for Writers. <br /><br />He showed how the same dialogue can be presented a multitude of different ways, and mean something different based on what you have your characters "doing." I wasn't sure what to expect from this class, but it was well worth the time.Kimberly Jobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968684955824178271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-76007195771243776422010-02-15T12:14:32.829-07:002010-02-15T12:14:32.829-07:00Related to this topic I loved the point made by Ho...Related to this topic I loved the point made by Howard Tayler in the class about side characters and improvisation. He said that the first law of improv is that you don't deny the other person. "No but..." is foul language in improv. Rather participants take the other person's statement and build on it with "yes and..." If we use this with our writing and our discussions of taste with others than we will find ourselves saying, "Well, yes if you loved Twilight then you might like The Dark Divine, by Bree Despain, which I found to be even more metaphorical."<br />I want to be a yesander not a nobutter.Diva Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07212847651776831475noreply@blogger.com
