The document discusses techniques for analyzing tone in fiction writing, including DIDLS (Diction, Syntax, Imagery, Details, Language, Structure). It provides examples of different types of diction (word choice) and sentence structures that can affect tone. Imagery is described as using language to create sensory impressions and evoke responses in readers. Details are facts that support the author's attitude or tone.
