How to Find Your True Writer’s Voice
Your true writer’s voice is made up of your personality, and your personality exists on three particular planes of existence
I’ll be honest with you: I get hundreds of emails from newbie writers asking how to find their “true writer’s voice.” They want to know if their writer’s voice is supposed to be the same as their speaking voice or something completely different.
I always answer in the following way
“In some respects, they are the same. However, the truth of the matter is: Not everyone has even mastered the art of their ‘true speaking voice.’ Forget their writer’s voice.”
You see, the way we communicate — regardless of what medium we use (speaking or writing) — requires a complete understanding of our personality. In other words, your “true voice” extends your true self.
To develop your “true writer’s voice,” you must first understand that we are talking about your personality and that your personality exists on three particular planes of existence.
- Cognitive
- Emotional
- Physiological
