VOICE: The Secret Power of Great Writing by James Scott Bell is a craft book that explores what voice is in fiction and how writers can develop a distinctive one. Bell argues that voice grows out of the writer's own personality, emotional investment and point of view, rather than being simply a matter of style. The book offers practical guidance and exercises for finding that voice on the page and keeping it consistent across a manuscript. It is aimed at fiction writers who want their prose to feel alive and recognizably their own.
