The Dialogue Doctor Podcast


Oct 17, 2022

In this episode, editor Laura Humm sits down with author Judy Boxer to look through the story Judy is working on. 

In part 1, Laura and Judy talk about the complications of blending memoir and fiction, they discuss how to pick a genre, they talk about finding a theme, using the character's voice to make the read more intimate.

In part 2, they talk about what Laura feels as a reader at the opening of the piece, writing little kids, showing character change, making sure we get some of the "world before" so we can appreciate where they are in the conflict, plus much more.
