Blogging Assignment #9

VOICE:

The author of this "The Sound Of Your Voice" stated that breeziness, condescension, and clichés. First of all, when the author said the voice must be breezy, the author meant that the voice the writer is using should be confident in what he/she is saying. The author also admits that taste is very important for the writer. The author mentions that the voice is one thing that the reader will enjoy. Taste can sometimes visible in the writing very easily, but sometimes it is invisible, or hard to find. He mainly warns us to not be verbose and corny. Imitation is one thing that the author mentioned as a good skill of learning. Through imitating, the author says that you will learn different skills. Also, he says to be not afraid of using your own voice. Also, he admits that we writers should not be intimidated by what the reader's bad comments and thoughts.
After reading "The Sound Of Your Voice", I personally thought that what he said was mostly true. First of all, we should never be intimidated in what other people say. When we get intimidated, we usually lose confidence. However, we should be confident of our own voice because each of our voice is unique. Also, we should build up our own voice as well. This is why mostly I agree to the author's statements.
