[stylist] Emphasis

Quite simply I would use upper class for the word  'now'.... I know some 
grammar and punctuation gurus disagree but writing has  become much more 
casual of late to appeal to the reader and I honestly think  this approach would 
work.. Just my small opinion.

Hi  folks, here I am again writing to my support group. LOL

So if we put  thought in italics, then how do we emphasize something? 

For example, I  want to make the word 'now' stand out in the following....

"If you are  not pleased, madam, I am sure someone will return to collect 
your  things."



"I want them collected, now. I insist you turn around  this instant." 

CC is very infatic when she says now. I want it to red  that way.

I don't want to over use exclaim, and I know at times authors  single a 
word for emphasis. Any help would be  great!

Thanks!
