And i dont quite get the problem with their being dialogue: its doesnt have to be exactly what the characters said. Ill post more of the story later and then flesh it out and edit it. maybe i can establish the character a bit more in later blog entries...

You can try writing in a simple present tense, then, although this can be tricky. My suggestion is that, given you story, you should ditch the blog entry idea completely. You don't have to; but it's a suggestion.
