Week 2 Discussion Topic-- Style and authentic voice are two terms that are sometimes used
interchangeably when discussing higher level writing skills. What do you think
these terms mean? (By all means use a dictionary, query friends, look them
up.)
Are they different? Is it necessary to have authentic voice or to attend to
style
when writing? If so, when? If not, why not?
I anticipate the interesting, well-thought out responses this question should
generate.
