Writing style

[Donnie ledbetter]

Does anyone believe as I do that Mr. Weeks has a very unique writing style? For example, I have noticed that he presents the reader with a characters thoughts, I am blown away by this minor abnormalty.

The Night Angel Trilogy is proving to be an amazing example of a well planned piece of work accompanied by an exhilerating plot. I love it!

If you have noticed something within Mr. Weeks work that grabs your attention Please bring it to my attention. I would love it if Mr. Weeks would describe his writing style. :)

Thank you in advance!

Third person omniscient? (Sorry for spelling) I think I remember something back in my freshmen year about that style allowing insight into all the characters' minds'. But If you notice it only gives you thoughts from the person at the beginning of said chapter. I don't know, I just confused myself. Anyhow it is an awesome thing, the way Mr.Weeks writes.

Actually, I want to say it's more third person subjective than it is omniscient. -shrugs-

Anyway, I simply adore his writing style. It must have taken a very long time to get it right though.

I totally appreciate the effort that went into it, Mr. Weeks! I bet in the future you will end up in the history books as a modern epic writer! Hahaha! You never know. :D

I think that his style is one that allows the reader to inmerse him/herself into the character and start to know that character inside and out...

Great work Mr. Weeks...

Hey, guys, thanks!
The funny thing is, what I concentrated on was making my writing style invisible. That is, I didn't want everyone to notice my writing style or how poetically I handle language. When I could use either "generosity" or "munificence" in a sentence, I'd choose "generosity" because I didn't want the book to be about me, I wanted it to be about my characters and their story. I wanted readers to experience the story and get to know the characters intimately. That's why I chose the third person limited. With a few exceptions, I stuck you in one character's head for an entire scene. So you couldn't tell what the character they were talking to was thinking, you could only see THIS character's thoughts and anyone else's actions and words. Apparently, it worked pretty well. :)
