I used to be active in Toastmasters, an organization devoted to learning how
to use one's speaking voice, and i seem to remember information in the manual
you get when you first join that might be helpful for this. i think there
were a couple of line drawings. Maybe you could contact a local club (would
be listed on the Toastmasters.org site.)
