Dialogue in a story is different from real-life talk.
If we were to record a normal conversation we’d find it filled with idle
chatter, incomplete thoughts and broken sentences. Most real-life
conversations would be too tedious to read.
Written dialogue has to capture and hold the attention of readers. If your characters ramble on, the way people do in real life, you’ll lose your audience. So cut out the flab: words that don’t serve any useful purpose, sentences and paragraphs that cause the story to drag.
