identity

There
are many facets to a writer's identity, from the connotation of the
words they lay on the page, their ability to invoke emotion in their
readers, which in turn allows the reader to gain a form of rapport
with the characters of the story; as well as with the writer
themselves. The writer's ability to paint the scenes as vividly as
possible, I believe, is also an element of a writer's identity;
this ability will hook your reader and have them wanting more, which
can almost guarantee you repeat readers.

You
can almost always tell the writer's who put a bit of themselves in
their writing. I know there are mixed opinions on his work, but
Stephen King has always been a favorite of mine; I have been reading
him since I was very young. Yes, he is a little long winded in some
of his stories, but that doesn't take away from the fact that you
can almost see him as some of his characters; he, in fact, has made a
cameo appearance in quite a few of the movies that have been made
from his works. As you read his work, you can almost see his
image when you read about Pennywise the Clown; believing that
somewhere in the mind that created the story, a small piece is in
fact IT.

Being
able to evoke the elements of your writing into your writer's
platform will allow you the potential opportunity to reach more
people. The elements they gleam from your different avenues, which
make up your platform, could persuade them to research you further;
which could lead into them purchasing your work, or at the very least
follow the rest of your media avenues.
