Mika+How+To+Write+With+Style

I chose this Journal Entry because it was something I could relate to. I also learned a great deal about writing styles from this Journal Entry. I realize how important using your own writing style is to your writing.

How To Write With Style Journal Entry I thought the author’s writing advice was very thorough and well put. Every piece of advice the author gives is backed up by his own personal experiences in writing. The advice that I found most surprising was to sound like yourself. The author states that the writing style that is most natural for you is bound to sound familiar to the speech you heard when you were a child. I didn’t realize how important the speech you heard when you’re a child would be so important to your writing style. The advice that spoke to me and my writing style was to find a subject you care about. That is important to me because if your writing about something you don’t care about you won’t put all your effort into it. The less effort you put into writing the less likely people will want to read it.
