How do you write a slap sound?

There are several ways to write a slap sound, depending on the intensity and context:

Onomatopoeia:

* Simple: *Slap*, *Thwap*, *Whap*, *Pop*

* More intense: *Smack*, *Bop*, *Thwack*, *Pow*, *BAM*

* Specific: *Splat*, *Whack*, *Klap* (used for different materials being slapped)

Descriptive:

* The sound of a hand connecting with flesh, a sharp *crack* that echoed in the room.

* The impact was like a wet *thud*, followed by a muffled *oomph* as the object fell to the ground.

Combining methods:

* *Splat*! The pie landed on the clown's face, leaving a sticky mess.

* He slapped her across the face, the *thwap* echoing in the stunned silence.

For a more subtle sound:

* The hand landed on the cheek with a soft *thud*.

* A gentle *tap* on the shoulder was enough to get her attention.

The best way to write a slap sound depends on the story, the desired effect, and your own personal style.
