-Voice-
These definitions apply to the point of view from which we write our words.
Apostrophe: A voice that addresses something that can not answer.
Dramatic Voice: Manner of speaking in which the writer pretends to be other people, animals, plants, or objects and presents their thoughts, feelings or actions.
Conversation: A piece that is presented as a dialogue between two people or objects.
Lyrical Voice: Originally the term 'lyric' simply referred to a poem that was intended to be sung. The lyric voice is seperated from the dramatic and narrative voices by the notion that the poem expresses the actual feelings of personal observations of the writer who is generally speaking in the first-person.
Narrative Voice: Manner of speaking which relays a story without any specific reference to the writer's feelings or personal observations.
Personna: A mask or alternate identity assumed by the writer. The writer will speak in the first-person for some other person or character.
