Text Replacement Prompts Lesson 3 / 5

Remove Dialogue Tags

Replace dialogue tags with action beats.

Reading Time
approx. 1 min

This General Purpose prompt Preset replaces dialogue tags (like “he said” or “she asked”) with action beats that show what the character is doing while speaking. This technique can make dialogue more engaging and dynamic. If the dialogue is rapid and the speaker is obvious, tags will be removed entirely.

How to Use

There are no required inputs for this Preset.

To use, select your prose, choose the Preset and model, and the text replacement will be applied to your writing.

This is a destructive prompt. Any text you select will be replaced with the AI’s output. We recommend using this prompt on small sections of dialogue at a time, to ensure that the AI is replacing tags in a way that fits with the tone and style of your story, before working on whole scenes.
