What’s left unsaid is often more revealing than what’s spoken. The truth of a character’s emotions — whether joy, denial, anger, or grief — often lurks beneath the surface of their words and actions. But how do we convey this on the page? How do we show, rather than tell, the hidden layers of meaning behind dialogue?
Join award-winning novelist Katie Ward for an immersive afternoon exploring the art of subtext and ambiguity in fiction. Learn how characters conceal their flaws, weaknesses, and secrets — and how these can be subtly unveiled through dialogue. Discover techniques to refine your pacing, craft compelling exchanges, and build tension that keeps readers engaged until the truth finally emerges.
