Hi guys, been writing for a while (3+ hours a day for more than 5 months) and noticing that I'm developing two distinct styles. Will these coalesce as I "find my voice" or are there other writers who have more than one style? Has anyone else gone through this?

FYI one's like a Will Self / Sam Lipsyte funny funny style and one's a Carver ripoff.

Will Self isn't funny, he's sardonic. Carver isn't great, a rip off will be worse. What have you published?

Sardonic people can be funny though can't they, I think we both know that Will Self is funny. I like Carver, what do you think of him? Nothing yet, I want to create something that is sincerely mine and not shit before I send something off.

Is Hunger Games written in present tense? How horrifying.

Maybe just the "action scenes" who knows dude. Most people I talk to don't even know what tense is anymore.

Yeah, most YA fiction is written in the present tense because it apparently adds more "immediacy" to the text.
