Writer s voice is the literary term used to describe the individual writing style of an author . Voice was generally considered to be a combination of a writer s use of syntax , diction , punctuation , characterization character development , dialogue fiction dialogue , etc., within a given body of text or across several works . Voice can be thought of in terms of the uniqueness of a vocal voice machine. As a trumpet has a different voice than a tuba or a violin has a different voice than a cello, so the words of one author have a different sound than the words of another. One author may have a voice that is light and fast paced while another may have a dark voice. In creative writing , students are often encouraged to experiment with different literary styles and techniques in order to help them better develop their voice . This aspect varies with the individual author, but, particularly in American culture, having this asset is considered positive and beneficial to both the writer and his or her audience.
