Description
Dialogue isn't always one character speaking one line. What if there are two characters speaking in unison. What if they are saying two different things? What if groups of people are speaking all at once? What if two conversations are going on at the same time?!? In this article, we'll look at all these possibilities and more, and discuss how the formatting might look.
