I didn't see an answer to Shanna's question, I hope somone didn't answer it elsewhere. Actually there are three different ways of formatting thoughts. The first is to not format them at all: Tom thought about the available choices. Green was ugly, and pink was definately not his color. Maybe the blue? He reached out and... Secondly is to put them in quote marks, just like speech: Tom looked over his available choices. "Man, that green is ugly!" he thought. "And pink is definately not my color. I guess I'll go for the blue." Third is italics: Tom looked over his available choices. Man, that green is ugly! And pink is definately not my color. I guess I'll go for the blue Hope this helps you!
