I personally favor italics and bolds for emphasis, I don't really ever change the font or use any special colors. I like my text to be relatively plain because I'm just particular like that I guess. I try to manipulate rhythm and tone by changing the lengths of sentences and the words I use to create a cadence. Other than that I just read my sentences five or six times to make sure that what I've written can be easily envisioned and interpretted.

I'm a minimalist as well. A dash of caps, and some strategic italics, but otherwise, nah.

It's usually just a matter of finding the right words and their combinations. Sometimes I'll even make up new words, because authors are allowed to do that, actually.

Yeah I guess I think similarly. Sometimes when words are put in a certain order it gets a little jumbled for me to read and I have to take a break or do something else before going back and reading that one specific thing (which has been a more recent thing for me).

I like my bolds and italics, sometimes I play around with CAPS but it isn't super frequent. I like it when sentences flow nicely and think that diction has a nice order makes the story a better read.
