Mike: I am really confused.
Mike: Because we have the same name?
Mike: No, because we look alike.
Mike: We do?
Mike: Don't you think?
Mike: But you have a chubby face.
Mike: Are you talking to me?
Mike: I thought I was but I didn't realize I was looking in the mirror.
Mike: Oh, Is that a mirror?
Mike: You didn't know?
Mike: I thought there were four of us.
Mike: Hold on, I'm getting confused, who delivered the last line?
Mike: I did.
Mike: You did?
Mike: Are you trying to confuse me?
Mike: You have a chubby face.
Mike: You have a chubby..
Mike: Are you going to insult me?
Mike: I would never insult your chubby figure.
Mike: If we look so alike, how comes you never get women but I do?
Mike: Your standards are lower.
Mike: They are.
Mike: That's not what your wife said.
Mike: You slept with the Mother of my kids?
Mike: Your kids?
Mike: Yeah, don't try it. They even look like me.
Mike: But less Chubby.
Mike: You've got a point.

Bummer, I missed getting in on this one. I guess I should post to the Pure Dialogue 2 bit.
I wonder why Firefox thinks dialogue is spelled incorrectly.

you could copy and paste an aim conversation...now those are stories in and of themselves!

I think it's a gret idea...when i write most of it is dialogue
9/30/2008 4:01 PM PDT
Huh...I'll work on one i guess.
9/21/2008 6:42 PM PDT
"Cool, James! Come look at this!"
"What's that?"
"A book of short stories, written in pure dialogue."
"Sounds neat. Do I have a clean uniform for work today?"
"Yeah, it's in the dryer."
"Would you turn off the computer and grab it for me, I'm going to be late?"
*sigh*

I remember doing those in english class. FYI look for one of mine soon.

What a cool idea! I've never tried this but look forward to it- and to reading what everyone has submitted.

I have always wanted to do this and it sounds like fun.

Kiss Of The Spider Woman by Manuel Puig.
There are a few pages of police/prison documents but, other than that, the whole book is nothing but dialog. It's really quite phenomenal.

I've been having trouble with this kind of thing myself. Seem to want to tell everything without much dialogue. Find myself going back to add it in all the time.

I had a great time with this!!!! Thanks so much!
8/28/2008 9:26 AM PDT
lot this idea...don't you? but why would you?
8/28/2008 1:21 AM PDT
How fun! :D
8/25/2008 6:08 AM PDT
I find this to be an interesting idea... it is engaging for the people participating and keeps you on your toes!
8/25/2008 5:37 AM PDT
GREAT idea for a thread. I found this page randomly using "StumleUpon" and have now joined the site. Dialogue is my weak spot and this is an excellent method of practice!
8/21/2008 12:43 PM PDT
Hey, just joined the site. I'll try and write my idea for the prologue to my children's novel into this!
8/18/2008 1:53 PM PDT
I wil struggle, but I will try. After I think of something first. HEHE
8/15/2008 12:19 PM PDT
This is a great project! I hope you like my submissions!

Once upon a time there was a library on the campus of a big university. The university had a very beautiful redwood forest where banana slugs roamed freely uninhibited by any salt on unappreciative people.
8/13/2008 8:28 AM PDT
I'm really looking forward to submitting a story here.
8/13/2008 5:37 AM PDT
I cant wait to start! =D
8/7/2008 5:00 PM PDT
I'll put on my thinking hat!

I really enjoyed being dropped into the middle of plans currently underway to use some new technology that would change the world....how refreshing....unexpected....riveting....very nice approach.
8/5/2008 11:40 AM PDT
I've reposted a story from another project. Hope that's acceptable.
