CTP (S3E128) How Writing Styles Shape What You Read (Books/AuthorsWeeks leftover)
Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond
We pull apart the difference between genre and writing style, from strict, edited prose to loose, modern voices. We show how dialogue density, narrative focus, and form—journal entries, pure narration, experimental structures—shape reader expectations and joy.
• genres contrasted with writing styles and why it matters
• role of Oxford, AP and Chicago style guides
• modern voice choices including slang for authenticity
• dialogue-light versus dialogue-heavy storytelling
• narrative-only and journal-entry formats explained
• length types from short story to extended novel
• how to choose books by style, not hype
• pointers to resources for aspiring writers
