USEFUL TOOL
Check out http://www.artnatomia.net/ for a really cool writing tool. Select either "English" or "Spanish" and then "Application". "Level I" shows you all the different facial muscles. "Level II" (the really helpful part) shows visually the expressions of emotional reactions and which muscles are affected. Instead of writing, "...he said in anger." You can click on "anger" and describe the face muscle changes making your writing more active. You can download the website and use it off line, too. Just make sure the computer you use has automatic Internet access.
