: Re: Resources with Examples of Short Stories to Teach Dialogue I'm teaching creative writing workshops, in which we read short stories with examples of literary elements to better understand how to

one of the main resources which is considered in any writing workshop, is Anton Chekhov's short stories.

you can also teach dialogues through them, However they are a little bit old-fashioned. but surely they would be helpful.
you can use Plays too. which are full of dialogues.

However you should choose simple plays as a start.
many of plays are philosophical and confusing. like Rhinoceros (Eugene Ionesco).

I would also recommend Haruki Murakami's short stories.
(some of them are very surreal; like "The strange library", be careful about them, they don't help you teach dialogue)
