Voice Journal

1. Voice in literature is the tone and attitude that is understood about the message of a piece of literature. To create voice a person could use word choice, syntax, or irony.

2. "I am a soccer player; I am the next Messi. I score like two goals every season!" My voice here is sarcastic because scoring just two goals in a season, as a forward, is not very good. I used irony to convey my sarcasm.

3. I would talk around failing a test if my parents asked me about it. I would do this because I wouldn't want a bad light to be shined on me.

4. It is important in non-fiction because it demonstrates the way an author feels about the subject. We want to avoid bias in our academic essays.

5. Using the same devices and developing a specific style would make your writing unique and identifiable.
