Find your voice – and make your writing sing!You know a great literary “voice” when you hear it: David Sedaris’s humorous cynicism. Elmore Leonard’s weary, smart-mouthed dialogue.

You’ll lean:•How to make any piece you write unmistakably yours and your alone•What agents and editors really think about using your own voice•How to write better by ignoring the rules•The keys to getting your voice and personality on the page•How to get back the unique voice you may have lost by trying to write like someone elseWhether you write fiction, nonfiction, or poetry, Finding Your Voice is a must read. Editors, agents, and readers all want to read something fresh and new; by finding your voice, you’ll be giving them exactly what they want!
