When you’re studying English in college, one of the things you’ll need to be acclimated to is a wide variety of writing styles. In college, you’ll read many different genres from a variety of writers with diverse backgrounds. In order to prepare you for this, here are a few tips.
1. Take a step out of your comfort zone. If you’re not a fan of the classics try reading Hills Like White Elephants by Ernest Hemingway. This will give you a good idea of a different style of writing and help you see imagery and characterization in a different light.
2. Try different genres. A good short story is The Man in the Black Suit by Stephen King. It’s an excellent story with intense imagery. Now mix that with Neighbors by Raymond Carver. You’ll notice a distinct difference in writing style and characterization. Do this with several short stories and/or novels to see the different styles you’ll be exposed to in your curriculum.
