Allison Wyss<p>In my subtext class, we talk about inflection--how meaning changes based on _how_ words are said. This seems pretty obvious &amp; I think about how we do it in real life &amp; how actors do it. But then there's a moment of--wait!--how do we make inflection felt in writing?</p><p>So: Just describing it, of course. Emphasis through rhythm &amp; punctuation choices. Gesture. What else?</p><p>How do you play with inflection in your dialogue?</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Writing</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/WritingConversations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritingConversations</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Subtext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Subtext</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Inflection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Inflection</span></a></p>
