Finally, you can set apart individual conversations with a

scene break.  Remember that you still need to include relevant information
about what people are doing, where they are, and how they look, without it
being obvious that you're just adding it to the dialogue so the reader can
know it.

That's a touch more difficult. After all, people usually don't describe what
the person in front of them is doing verbally.

         Exactly!  I had to imply it with things like "Hard to follow me 
when your legs are broken" and other such comments.  It also forces you to 
think about exactly what information is essential to your story.

Beware of organizations that proclaim their devotion to the light without
embracing, bowing to the dark; for when they idealize half the world they
must devalue the rest.
