After a dialog do you start a new paragraph?

Answer 1

You should start a new paragraph with each new speaker.

Answer 2

When writing a fiction story, there are several key pointers I can give you about inserting dialogue in your fiction in order to make your story more interesting and convincing. When you write what you want your character to say, put it in quotation marks such as the following: "I love to paint pictures with pretty colours". My character just said that sentence. Then, I can add identification of who said this line in the paragraph by adding, "I love to paint pictures with pretty colours," said Ellie. And when inserting dialogue in the middle of a paragraph, jump to the next line such as illustrated in following example

Ellie stood before the art teacher's desk as the teacher held the magnificent piece at her fingertips. The piece was hard to look at for just a moment.

"This picture is magnificent! What a beautiful depiction of a sunset over a beach!" Ellie smiled self conciously.

"I love to paint pictures with pretty colours," said Ellie.

And you can also add the identification before the dialogue as in the following example: Ellie said, "I love to paint pictures with pretty colours." And when one character says two different segments of dialogue, as long as they are both in a row, you don't have to indent and skip lines as in the following example.

"Where did you ever learn to paint such pretty pictures?" the teacher asked, growing interested. She took another generous look at the work. "I would love you to paint some more."

And finally, when your character speaks very long dialogue and you need to change paragraphs, do not add a finishing quotation mark at the end of that paragraph and then just indent and add another beginning one and continue on with what your character was saying. Here is an example:

"...I would love to decorate my room with your beautiful pictures, Ellie. They are very beautiful. I have never had a room decorated with such pretty pictures.

"When I was teaching at a small school a few years ago, my room was very plain...
