Potential points to consider:

What gets your goat when you read dialogue? Is it different for different fandoms, different characters? Why is that?

What, to you, is authentic dialogue? Where can you find it?

How do you feel about ellipses? Do people really talk in full sentences the whole time?

How do you feel about people representing accent or dialect in dialogue? What works for you and what doesn't?

Does the wrong turn of phrase or choice of word for a character throw you out of the story?

Do people have more trouble writing characters from other cultures? Is this just a matter of idiom or is there more to it?
