Candace is writing a memoir. Her characters are the opposite of talkative. She took my online dialogue class earlier this year and learned that dialogue in any books brings more reader engagement. But she was confused about how to bring her particular characters to life and still stay true to their silent natures.
I read other writers to answer these kinds of questions. Kent Haruf wrote six novels set in the fictional town of Holt, Colorado. All of them have quiet characters, but each is unique and fascinating.
