Hi!! I love your writing style so much, are there any books or writing techniques that helped you create your style or did you naturally start writing like that and found your writing voice that way? You write with a lots of great imagery and your truly my favourite writer 😘 also do you have any tips with examples on how to write more descriptively? (Only if u want of course!) have a great day!!!
🥺🥺🥺 ahh thank you so much anon, you’re too sweet!!!! i had plenty of writing inspo back when i was starting out (and still now), personally i don’t think you can reach a signature style at all without reading other works!!! (even now i sometimes wonder if my writing voice is rlly that distinctive or not……)
my main source of writing inspo has always been disco elysium!!! :3 it’s a video game but mostlyyyy made up of writing, and it’s . my favorite thing ever ever ever …. can’t explain how much it means to me and how much it’s changed me as a person And as a writer !!!!! so i will always recommend it more than anything 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ richard siken’s poetry is another huge inspo source for me though !!!! and honestly i really do believe you only get better at writing by reading a bunch of other works, fanfics or books, etcetc, and sort of making a patchwork of everything you loved about them . to write you need to read!!!!
as for descriptions, the only advice i’ve really managed to come up with is to dissect whatever you’re writing about!!!! whether it’s an action, a setting, a feeling, an object, etcetcetc. picture the scene in your mind and then zero in on even the smallest details. it’ll feel natural the more you do it!!! another trick is to remember to always include all senses (hearing, touch, smell, taste), not just sight!!! it’ll make your settings feel a lot more alive :3 but yeah!!! with descriptions it usually comes down to digging as deep as you can / dragging motions out.
thank you for the fun question anon <333 and tysm for your kind words!!! pls have a great day too 🫂🫂
