Words to use instead of “said” organized by emotion/intention 2.0

Said is NOT a bad word. ~75% of the time, it’s all you need. But here’s some alternative when you really need to spice up that dialogue! 

Use sparingly for more impact - especially the more dramatic verbs.  Emotion and intent are complex! I tried to reduce redundancy as much as I could, but some words are simply going to be in multiple categories. i.e. “anger” and “loud” share a lot of words

This is a living document and will be updated whenever I think of new words.

I’ve been seeing some “things you should know about your character” posts circulating on a few sites, and I know I’ve said it before, but these aren’t necessary. They help some people develop their characters, sure. But a lot of what’s listed is so trivial. It gives a sense of “if you don’t know your OC’s favorite color when they were five and two quarters then you can’t write your story.” Those fill-in-the-blanks can be fun, but most of that information either comes on its own as the story progresses or just isn’t needed. I don’t know what my characters’ favorite colors are, I don’t know what specific foods they’re allergic to, or what their worst nightmare was growing up. If that’s something you find helpful, then by all means use it! But don’t feel like not knowing those things means you can’t write until you do.
