Does Your Writing Sound Like You?Ā
Use my free diagnostic cheat sheet to uncover the patterns that make your writing uniquely yours and figure out whether your voice is buried, overshadowed or simply hard to recognize.
Ā
You don't need to invent your author voice.Ā
You need to learn how to recognize it.
Your voice shows up in the choices you repeatedly make on the pageā€”what you notice, how you interpret events, the language you use, the patterns you fall into, and what you naturally prioritize.
But sometimes those choices get buried under imitation, over-editing or the self-imposed pressure to write "correctly."
This cheat sheet will help you look at your own writing and figure out what's really happening.
The sheet will help you discover:
- How to identify the choices that make your writing YOURS
- How to recognize your patterns
- How to compare writing that sounds like you with writing that doesn't
- How to tell if you're imitating another writer
- How to recognize when you've edited out your voice
This is for you if...
- You're wondering whether you actually have an author voice.
- Your writing feels polished, but somehow doesn't feel like you.
- You find yourself trying to sound more literary, professional, or "writerly."
- You worry your revisions are making your writing flat.
- You can recognize other authors' voices but struggle to see your own.
- You want a practical way to look for your voice instead of just being told to "just write."
