“I think my role is as a writer, especially, and then also as a speaker, an organizer, and an entre- preneur of social change. My role isn't to make choices for people-each individual or group needs to do that on their own. But as a writer and a speaker, you can describe possibilities that perhaps haven't been visible before, and aren't in other public dialogues or in the rest of the media. So I suppose I think of myself mainly as an organizer and as someone who describes possibilities.” PeopleThinkingNeedsChoicesIndividualSocialRolesGroupsMediaHavensPossibilityDialogueVisibleSpeakersSocial ChangeOrganizer Author:Gloria Steinem
“You learn to do your best writing on story rather than off story. Very often at the beginning of their careers, writers including me do their best dialogue writing off story - the best lines, the best observations - but they haven't got enough to do with the plot to stay in.” WritingEnoughStoriesLinesCareersHavensIncludingDialogueObservationPlot Author:Victor Levin
“I spent the better part of a week trying to figure out how to organize these stacks of 30 years of conversations and dialogues. I finally began clustering them in these different categories, and I ended up with the ones you listed.It's interesting to me the kinds of questions I haven't been called to wrestle with. For example, I don't know what this says, but I'm not asked a lot of political questions.” KnowsTryingYearsKindDifferentPoliticalInterestingWeekHavensFiguresExampleConversationDialogueCategoriesOrganize Author:Max Lucado
“I read the script [of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency] and went, "I haven't read anything this good, in a long time." I thought it was absolutely brilliant. The dialogue is so sparkling, smart and witty. You also have these insane, crazy characters, like energy sucking vampires and holistic assassins. It's all completely weird.” LongCharacterEnergyCrazyHavensLong TimeSmartScriptsWittyBrilliantDialogueInsaneVampireAgencyDetectivesHolisticAssassinsSparklingDirk Gently Author:Samuel Barnett
