Hello.
I am writing a short in which a rather long conversation happens between two people. In between the conversation, some actions occur. How can I avoid repeating "he said"?
Let me explain what I mean.
Jack poured some coffee. "I can't do it," he said. He cleaned the glass. "I may resign tomorrow," he said, taking off his jacket. "I want to talk to my boss tomorrow, he continued. "Don't quit Jack," said John. "I don't have an option," responded Jack. "I can't work there anymore," he said.
Obviously this is just an example and I can write better. The conversation is between two people.
