Theory of Authoring.

First it was said and people listened.

Then you read of what peopled wrote.

People wrote for their own godame selves and people read whatever was written. Most of your classical authors are in this category. With each one having a distinct unique style of prose/poetry… this was a time when relatively few people wrote/read

As the numbers grew, people figured that if what they wrote had to be read by a respectable number of other people... they had to cater to the “needs/requirements” of the reader. People were searching for the “ideal-catered” style of writing. I believe that it was from this chaos of catering that evolved the different schools of writing... and the “perfect” style of writing. you studied, analysed and tried to recreate a sellable writing style.

But as the net came into the picture the Reach of the written word suddenly grew; you no longer are constrained to write for the X number of people in your immediate vicinity. In fact if you have any plans of selling, you need to find your “special ability”, your “X” factor.

The balance has shifted, the rules (of writing) are being broken.

What makes you unique?
