I have read authors, even emerging ones, who write without giving a harmonious tone to the words. Here's what I mean by musicality: the quality of words to create a kind of written melody. It involves wisely choosing the combinations of terms, the arrangement of subjects, verbs, predicates, the use of prepositions and all the elements of the language that allow you to model sentences and sentences.
We must not stop to consider a novel as a mere written text, because that novel will be read by the reader and I, I don't know about you, Phone Number Data mentally read aloud. I hear the words I read and if what I hear is not musical to my internal ears, then it is not pleasing to the mind. Coherence of words Some time ago I published a post in which I warned to pay attention to the words you use . When we write we tend to use our own language, while in my opinion the language must be adapted to the historical period we are writing about.

A farmer or a criminal who comes from the suburbs or a child will never be able to speak like a graduate. Style Style is perhaps the clear characteristic of a writer: knowing how to choose words so that they are effective, musical and coherent. All this, this choice of words together, creates the style of an author, recognizable to readers because it is a clear distinctive sign of the author himself. The search for style is one of the writer's objectives, because it represents a sort of identity card, a brand that makes him distinct from other writers.
