The most annoying thing for me is when people use the term "said" repeatedly in a piece of writing. It makes the concept boring, and
it isn't fun to read anymore. That is why I've decided to make this short list of terms that are synonyms of the word "said". Also, this tutorial is not yet completely finished. Just thought I'd throw that out there so that you guys can look at it.

1. Choose your words carefully. Don't just randomly pick any word. Imagine saying: She approached the teacher, ready to ask him to
reconsider her punishment. And as she arrived at his table, that seemed like miles away from her desk, she sang "Please, give me an
A+."
Okay, I know its not a very good example, but you get the point...
2. Use words that you understand. If you don't even know what you're saying, then there is a huge chance that you will use the word wrong.
3. If you can't find any other word other than "said", use description after it. It'll make the sentence much more interesting. :)
I decided that this page should have its very own credits because I need to thank so much people, etc.
Thanks to Scribbler's Abode again. I got the idea for this tutorial from there, and the name too. Hehe. I am very unoriginal - O.o
Thanks to PAINT. For once I used that program. See that little stick man guy at the side? Yeah, I made him in paint.
Thanks to
dictionary.com where I got lots of synonyms. It's a very useful site - GO THERE.
