I think that a writer’s voice comes through in whatever they write, even in their first writings. I realize that it won’t “magically burst forth”, but I don’t think the term “find your voice” works. It’s already there; maybe “connect” would work better. However, I think it grows and develops and becomes much more visible the more they write and read and experiment.

Persona poems as shapeshifting… It’s hard to write poetry from another point of view. I’m kind of stuck in the writing as related to autobiography, something I should work on to stretch my abilities and look at things from other points of view.
