In my subtext class, we talk about inflection--how meaning changes based on _how_ words are said. This seems pretty obvious & I think about how we do it in real life & how actors do it. But then there's a moment of--wait!--how do we make inflection felt in writing?

So: Just describing it, of course. Emphasis through rhythm & punctuation choices. Gesture. What else?

How do you play with inflection in your dialogue?
