“Have your characters misunderstand one another once in a while. Have them answer the unspoken question rather than the one asked out loud. Have them talk at cross purposes. Have them hedge. Disagree. Lie. It will go a long way toward making them sound human.”

COW PASTURE CHRONICLES 
I’m working on a book, have been for some time. Reading through what I’ve already done, I realized that although I could see my characters clearly, I haven’t done nearly enough to make them flesh and blood for the readers. I’m succeeding to well at eliminating all those pesky adjectives 🙂 Dialogue is a great way to make your characters come to life.

So good to hear from you Linda. Hope all is well. I find that dialogue is my favorite way to bring my characters to life and reveal their personalities.
