Saying verbs are words used to indicate speaking (hence the name).
They are often used when a writer wants to use an alternative for the word 'said' in their speech tags for direct speech. They can provide more information as to how things are being spoken.
E.g. "Get out!" she screamed.
"Make me," he fumed.
A wide variety of saying verbs can be the hallmark of a good writer who is providing necessary information. They can also indicate an inexperienced writer who is trying too hard. Use as needed but beware of overuse.
