your writing does not have to be outstanding or exceptional. seriously, I read books all the time with just average writing, maybe some of the minor characters are one dimensional and cliched, maybe the dialogue is a little cheesy, maybe the plot is a little shaky, but the characters and their dire situation have hooked me. your story doesn’t have to be 5 stars to be worth writing and sharing and it will find the people who will love it.

From the October 31, 2024 article:

“In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way you want. And no one will ever know,” Roberts says in the ad as a woman on screen meets up with her husband after casting her ballot for Harris.

The voter winks at a fellow female voter as her husband asks if she made the “right choice.”

Republicans have responded to the video with outrage, with some claiming that a wife lying about her vote is as bad as an affair.

“If I found out Emma was going to the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair,” Fox News host Jesse Watters said on air Wednesday in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.

Other GOP members including Charlie Kirk said the thought was “nauseating.”

Reminder so it’s absolutely 100% clear: you can lie about who you voted for

Your dad threaten to kick you out if you don’t vote the way he wants you to, and you don’t vote that way? Lie. Or say you didn’t vote.

Your boss asks who you voted for? Lie. If you can ask if they think that’s appropriate to ask.

Your partner? Lie. Your vote is genuinely yours.

Hell, lie here. You don’t need to tell anyone who you voted for, and you don’t need to be honest about it.

What is... Deus Ex Machina?

Deus ex machina refers to a scenario that seems impossible for the character to believably get themself out of. It's an unsolvable problem that suddenly gets solved by external forces that often don't seem very plausible.

This could be a situation where the author wrote themself into a corner and created a scenario that the character is not logically getting out of.

It can be a simple but implausible solution like a bomb is about to go off and a background character trips over a cable that diffuses the bomb. Or in its literal translation ("god out of the machine") it's a god-like intervention that suddenly fixes everything. Often used to save characters from their otherwise inevitable death.

How to develop your own writing style

Developing your writing style is a continuous process that requires time and effort. Here are some tips to help you find your voice:

Read widely

Read a variety of books, articles, and other writing to expose yourself to different styles and perspectives. Take note of writing styles you admire and consider why they appeal to you.

Write regularly

The more you write, the more you'll develop your writing skills and style. Write in a journal, start a blog, or write for a personal project to get regular practice.

Experiment with different writing styles

Try writing in different styles to see what works best for you. Play around with voice, tone, and syntax to develop your own voice.

Study grammar and syntax

A good understanding of grammar and syntax will help you write more effectively and with more confidence.

Revise your writing

Revision is key to improving your writing style. Read your writing critically and consider how you can make it more concise, clear, and engaging.

Seek feedback

Share your writing with others and ask for feedback. This will help you identify strengths and weaknesses and give you a fresh perspective on your writing.

Remember, developing a writing style takes time and practice. Don't get discouraged if it doesn't happen overnight. Keep writing and experimenting, and you'll find your voice eventually. Good luck!
