For starters, what the fuck is this beast, writing style? You hear everyone shout about it on every corner and read about it in every book on writing and watch it drop from the mouths of big famous authors talking about it like it's their comfortable underwear. You try to understand it when you start out. And that is wrong. Because. Here is the deal.

YOUR WRITING STYLE IS YOU.

Now you can toss all those smart books on style out the window. You don't need them. What you need is to write like mad, write a lot, to discover YOU. Because when you discover who YOU are, you will discover your writing style.
