I focus on a few core habits rather than “tricks,” and they all revolve around thinking like a listener, not a reader.

  1. I teach you to pre-hear the other person’s line: who you’re talking to, what they just said, and how that affects your first word
  2. I drill “thought before text”: a micro-beat of inner reaction before each new idea or sentence
  3. I use mark-ups to show implied questions, objections, or interruptions so your timing feels conversational, not robotic
  4. I push you to read for relationships and conflict: what you want from the listener, and what they’re giving you back in your imagination

Which part of anticipating dialogue are you struggling with most: timing, emotional shifts, or sounding conversational?
