Polish Your Dialogue and Descriptions
Another secret to writing a book that readers love is crafting dialogue and descriptions that feel authentic. Dialogue should sound natural — as if your characters are speaking in real life. Avoid overly formal or stiff conversations. Let your characters’ personalities shine through their words.
Tip: Read your dialogue aloud. If it sounds awkward, rewrite it until it flows.
Descriptions, on the other hand, should paint vivid pictures in the reader’s mind. But don’t overdo it — balance is key. Too much description can slow down your story, while too little may leave readers lost.

As you write, ask yourself: “What do I want my readers to feel in this scene?”
