Just a reminder about tonight's meeting, which will be a discussion of non-verbal dialogue -- how to describe the interchange of information between characters without having them speak. We'll be joined by Paula Marchese. Paula is an experienced actress and writing teacher (some of us know her through her playwriting and screenwriting classes at Writers & Books), and she'll offer us her perspective on the relationship between dialogue and language.
By the way, Paula has recommended looking at Hemingway's "Hill Like White Elephants" as a reference example -- useful because it's almost entirely dialogue. It's quite short (it's Hemingway!) and is available online if you don't have a hard copy. >From Scribd.com: http://www.scribd.com/doc/94569/Hills-Like-White-Elephants Another version, with some hypertext commentary at vcu.edu: http://www.has.vcu.edu/eng/webtext/hills/hills.htm As usual, we'll meet at Barnes & Noble at 7, with 7-7:30 reserved for pre-meeting socializing. Hope to see you there. -- -- eric scoles | [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "R-SPEC: The Rochester Speculative Literature Association" group.
