“I’ll be just fine.” He stood up and brushed himself off in a gesture of nonchalance. “Worry about yourself.”

Is this way correct? Or should I be separating the action and the dialogue?

Thanks!

I want to write a teen romance novel, and I usually start with an outline, but a small one at that, then a more detailed outline, a rough draft, then the final draft. But that was more of an essay or a short story with an assigned topic, so I really don’t know where to begin. Should I use those methods, other methods, or should I just dive right in and start writing? HELP!

And I’m not talking about something like, “How was your day?” she asked. More captivating dialogue.
But even if it is captivating, is it a good way to start off a teen comedy novel?
