Conley’s cross-genre seminar, “People Are Talking: Learning to Leverage Dialogue for the Reveal,” will focus, she says, on dialogue “in terms of the wondrous and incisive ways it can build tension” while avoiding “artifice and infodumps and tropes.” Participants will experiment with “new dialogue that allows your scenes to come fully alive.”
Conley has taught at a host of colleges and art residencies, and currently serves on the faculty of the Stonecoast MFA program at the University of Southern Maine. She is co-founder of the Telling Room, a Portland creative writing lab for young people.
