Just published written dialogue for Lesson 2  under the name 'Edison'. Hope this will suffice for 'Punctuation.'

Okay, thanks LA. Now you have reviewed lesson one and my dialogue for week one.
I have turned in the homework for week two and I owe you a newly created dialogue scene for week two. So once I get that into you am I caught up?

Hi LA:
Okay, I understand the Thursday deadline, now. I posted lesson one on Friday night or Saturday morning. It was posted on the Dynamic Dialogue group but you say you have not seen it? You gave an IL review of my writing example yesterday but not the lesson. What two lessons have I not posted? I am trying to play by the rules but this is confusing me.

It was my understanding we had week to respond to these lessons. Guess my understanding was wrong. I have a full time job I am trying work into this schedule. Looks like I will have to re-schedule my schedule. I will adjust lesson number two. My lesson number one was never graded so I have no idea what I learned-- my mistake, not yours!!

Feel free to post any questions here.

When you are writing about a person's thoughts, should they be italicized? I give you the following as an example

He thought to himself, with the talk of a depression coming, if things are tough now it is really going to get bad and I had better be in place before that happens.

Hi LA:
My Life has been involved with heavy equipment sales and construction management, which has absolutely nothing to do with writing a book. Nevertheless, I have had an interesting life and I am writing my memoir.
I love to write and have written a lot of articles on Facebook. Years ago I wrote radio, TV commercials and produced them. None of that taught me anything about writing dialogue.
While starting my book, I have found a lot of help in submitting my first three chapters to TNBW and have taken to heart the criticism I have received. Most of it has to do with dialogue... thus the enrollment in your class.
Writing this book is something I am totally committed to getting published. I want it to be good enough that a publisher will buy it. My bar is set really high, as a result, using that as my goal. I do not want to produce a schlock book and self publish.
Hoping you can help guide me towards this goal.
Best regards,
Wyatt Goodwin
