I’m in the process of doing a line edit revision on my new novel these days, and I’m focusing on dialogue. Dialogue has always been a unique struggle for me.

Actually, the title to this post should be, “What it’s really like to finish your first draft.” I’m nowhere near being finished with my novel. Right now, it’s sitting in the bottom drawer of my desk, gathering the omnipresent dust we have here in Southern California, waiting to be revised.
