You hear it all the time - Find your voice!

Publishers say they're looking for "fresh new voices."

But what does writer's voice mean, exactly?

In today's episode, we'll explore:

  • What writer's voice is
  • How you can encourage your voice to come out and play. 
  • Excerpts from stories by Meghan Daum and Ernest Hemingway to get a fix on what makes their voices distinct from any other. 
  • And I'll give you an exercise straight from Twyla Tharp's book, The Creative Habit, to help you access your own voice.  


Notable Books:

Meghan Daum's Life Would Be Perfect If I Lived in That House
Ernest Hemingway's The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories
Twyla Tharp's The Creative Habit
