VOICE IN WRITING

CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF ARTS AND TECHNOLOGY

ROBERT HOWREY

Voice can be described as the unique quality, tone, or style that jumps off the page in each piece of writing – but while voice involves tone and style, style and tone are not synonymous with voice. “Voice” in a piece of writing also takes on different meaning according to the genre and purpose (Mariconda, 2020).

Neuromancer is told in a third person limited omniscient narrative voice. Basically, third person limited omniscient narration means the story is told by at outside narrator who tells us the actions, thoughts, and feelings of just or two select characters. In narrative writing, focusing on the main character is critical. This style of writing allows you to get close enough to the character as if they were telling the story themselves.
