Does the chapstick like product say “Believable Dialogue” or “Relevant Dialogue”.
I have Firefox
and can tell you (thanks to Firefox’s image zoom functions) it’s “believeable”.
Re: I have Firefox
Thank you.
Re: I have Firefox
Now you know: believable dialogue comes in little rolls like Tums.
Re: I have Firefox
Relievable Dialogue.
I want the “Motivation”!
Ancient Chinese Secret, eh?!
That’s new, improved Deluxe Character Motivation, now with innate sensibility. “They’ll never know!” promises the seal.
You are drawing these? I’m impressed.
Thank you.
I’d like to place an order for that narrative gap sealent and ask if you offer colorful description in a spray-on form.
You forgot the Drama Flakes! Drama Flakes!
What I need to find at my local superstore is a giant tub of Characterization.

hmmm. I’m no consumer whore but wouldn’t it be more apt (cliched) to make the storytelling bits like ingredients in a stew or something? There is the meat, a big hunk of plot. The climax could be the after dinner treat. Subtext would be the stock along with all it’s spices and elements, etc. I’m not sure about irony is that critical to most stories or just the ones being told these days? Seems the irony card is a good cop out if a story could be considered “too ________”.
Re: producing
Well, that’s why it’s sold in pinches.
Any boil-in-the-bag clichés?
Cliches are not for sale; they are kept in a bin by the front door as a giveaway.
