If you guessed me you were right!

Most, if not all, of those who did venture a guess on my anonymous post did guess that it was me. I think that means that I do indeed have a very particular voice, or my class mates were much better at the game than I was!!! LOL
Voice of a great writer
The things that make up the voice of a great writer are not necessarily in the grammar they use, but the writer must have a beautiful grasp of the language. They must not just entice the reader but also transcend them to another time and place. They must touch the emotions of the audience while relaying a message that those reading can not only understand but relate to. Voice includes all of these things, but the style of that voice is very individual from writer to writer. A great writer is not afraid of their voice or their style but does question if they will be understood all along the way
