I'd like to raise a friendly little objection to that. I know I put a reply to a similar thread like this two weeks ago or so where I explained my reasoning, but the gist is that I'd say it comes down to working with strangers to find common ground first.

Okay yeah that's a big part of it. Thank you for adding that.
It's not really that hard. For me it's not that hard, anyways. Then again I have had a few years of experience, so I have a rough idea of what I'm doing.
I tend to write it like it's a script for a film or a play. It makes it easier to follow, and. . .well, it works for me.
(action is portrayed in italics and pararenthesis. Background information on the setting can be written out here.)
Character: Character dialogue.
A specific tone of voice (whispering, shouting, etc.) or a style of speaking (swauvely, quietly, slowly, in an angry tone) can be specificed in pararenthesis and italics before the character diagolue. This isn't a necessity, and as with portraying action in this way, short is usually better and less distracting.
From there, the sky is the limit, and you can do whatever you want with your characters or yourself using this technique.
I hope this was helpful.
