I love writing plays. My pen just goes off with a mind of its own and blah blah blah ... I have lots of dialogue. I often wonder where it all comes from. I usually have an idea, and some characters to play out the idea.
The best resource for playwriting is the BBC Writers Room. You can listen to plays, download plays, learn about plays.
