Writer's voice
Encyclopedia : W : WR : WRI : Writer's voice
Writer's voice is a literary term used to describe the individual writing style of an author. Voice is a combination of a writer's use of syntax, diction, punctuation, character development, dialogue, etc., within a given body of text (or across several works).
In creative writing, students are often encouraged to experiment with different literary styles and techniques in order to help them better develop their "voice." Voice varies with the individual author, but having a strong voice is considered positive and beneficial to both the writer and his or her audience.
