I really appreciate the dialogue style without "he said", all the time. I have just noticed how often this occurs in one particular new book, because I am listening on audible and it stands out badly.
Well, that's one thing I did, and always do, wrong.
I think I "bite the bullet" and ask for critique for my story "You call this a hanging!". No need to go too deep with it; a few good/less bad and bad/less good points will suffice.
And I, of course, try to write a few words in return.
My comment about dialogue does not apply all the time, I wasn't using that to criticise anyone else and hadn't even noticed it on any of the stories here.
It happens when there are a series of fairly short sentences, often hardly a full line, alternating between characters in a conversation and it keeps repeating, for example:
"No," John said.
"Perhaps tomorrow?" Tom said.
"Won't suit me!" John said.
and so on for several lines.
I've noticed it happening more often lately, in different kinds of books, and wonder when it's
he and
she instead of actual names if it is done on purpose to emphasise an argument, or a stand-off or the beginnings of one. If so, it's not always successful.
I heard it yesterday in The Final Empire on audible, somewhere in the chapter with the interview about the transport deal, but because it is audible it's hard to find, it just sounded forced.
Edited. Just rushed off to the sub thread and re-read your story,
@ArcaneArtsVelho, not what I meant at all

I thoroughly enjoyed
Call This a Hanging , especially the back and forth banter with the crowd, it flowed perfectly. Somehow we suspected what was coming but I liked the way the whole family was involved and the double twist with Bel's reaction to what he had been caught doing. Definitely a typical Rogue, thank you for the laughs.
