[Sticks]

This evening I was trying out something I have my protagonist doing in an episode one I have been drafting, which resulted in some re-drafting. Nothing major, exotic or illegal, just a very minor detail about an action coupled with dialogue, but I tend to be a perfectionist on some things.

Sometimes I will also say dialogue out loud, to see if it is natural or forced.

Anyone else do that to make sure of realism?

Still not sure when I will be publishing as other things have been happening in the real world
