Voice

 

It isn’t unusual to hear as a writer that you need to find your own voice, but it’s not clear where you find it. It’s not something you can pick up at the grocery store and you can’t even google it on the Internet. So, how do you find your voice?

The only way to do it is through practice and experience. You certainly can read other authors, and I encourage you to do so, but imitating their voice won’t really help you find yours. Since you use your voice in different ways at different times, you might find you have more than one voice that comes through in your work. In the Exercise Section there are exercises that will help you to find and hone your voice.

Finding your writing voice can take some time and a lot of channeling energy. Creative finding voice writing is helpful in finding your voice. Try to contact your inner voice and let it become an active voice through your writing. In a metaphysical book, creative metaphysics can be channeled through finding your metaphysical writer voice.
