Invoked thought: bastard discours and more

Beginning writers usually encounter an obstacle in their composition in that they are not entirely sure in which voice to speak in. In Bartholomae's article, he states that beginning writers must in a way, mimic the voice of experienced writers- but most can not do this. Instead, in creates an akward and imbalanced sense or tone for the reader, which makes no inferences to who or what is being invoked, and how the reader should interpret such. He says that many new writers have problems being assertive and taking a voice of their own, especially in argumentive or persausive papers- which may often times go against the voice of the professor or the class opinion. They don't feel compftorable lecturing. Like I noted before, Bartholamae says that this inexperience can be compensated by simply faking or mimicing a voice.
I agree with this notion. Often times before I have written, I find myself examining similiar compositions. Not only because I am seeking information but also checking to see if the voice I have written in or the the voice I seekto write in is in harmony with something I know is already a successful mode to address the audience, while keeping it a voice of my own.
