Why didn’t anyone make this sooner? I hate when people only use the word “said” in stories.

THANK YOU

BLESS YOUR COW

BLESS THIS POST.

CAN I MARRY A POST?

WHO EVER MADE THIS I LOVE YOU!

GOD BLESS

no no no GOD no
EACH OF THESE WORDS HAS A SPECIFIC MEANING AND SHOULD ONLY BE USED WHEN NEEDED
DON’T USE THESE FOR DIALOGUE TAGS

NNGOD I REMEMBER THIS FROM MIDDLE SCHOOL.
what PK said is not only right, but accepted by professional writers who write books and give lectures on this shit. (according to mom)
all these words will pop out and interrupt the flow of the writing. said is invisible.

AUUURHG THE ONE WRITING RULE I WISH I COULD JUST OBLITERATEit is totally okay to just use ‘said’ over and over, in fact it’s usually a testament to the actual writing. if you’re not flowering it up with a million different words you are left simply with the characterisation and the events, and that’s what your reader is interested in anyway
flowery words just obfuscate that point and trip them up 
use these words for specific referential narration but seriously DO NOT EVER FEEL OBLIGATED TO USE THESE ATTACHED TO DIALOGUE TAGS

This list is missing my favourite: “EJACULATED”, which used to make my 18/19th ct brit lit class a riot because it’s everywhere in the works of Austen, Eliot and others. But seriously, don’t use them in dialogue tags, they’re super distracting.

NO
THESE WORDS ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR SAID
SAID HAS A MEANING BY ITSELF
ALL THESE WORDS HAVE SEPARATE MEANINGS
ONLY TO BE USED AT CERTAIN TIMES
NOT JUST WHENEVER YOU’RE LOOKING TO REPLACE THE WORD SAID, FOR WHATEVER FREAKING REASON, BECAUSE YOUR FIFTH GRADE TEACHER WANTS YOU TO
WHY IS SAID HATED ON SO MUCH

I HAVE THIS BOOKMARKED BECAUSE SOMETIMES I NEED TO FIND A SYNONYM.
BUT FOR FUCK’S SAKE IF YOU WANT TO USE SAID JUST USE SAID.
I HAD A TEACHER IN EIGHTH GRADE WHO HATED THE WORD SAID.
SHE WAS ALSO THE ONE THAT CRITICIZED MY WRITING BECAUSE MY WRITING STYLE DELIBERATELY BREAKS SEVERAL RULES OF GRAMMAR AND SHE SAID, “YOU HAVE TO LEARN THE RULES BEFORE YOU BREAK THEM.”
BITCH I KNEW THE RULES.
I AM THE FUCKING RULES.
