Answer:

  • Read a lot.
  • Start writing your own experiences even if you consider them really basic or boring.
  • Reflect on everything you think about writing.
  • Start observing everything that surrounds you, from a leaf falling from a tree to your little sister playing dolls.
  • Try looking in the dictionary for new words or synonyms of words you already use.
  • Be detail oriented
  • Write a little every day.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is not one exact or only way to develop your own unique writing style, however, you can do a series of things every day in order to develop it. The very first one I recommend you is to read a lot; reading not only allows you to gain more knowledge but also increases your range of vocabulary. Writing everyday even if it’s a little, your experiences during the day perhaps, a sort of –journal-, but always make sure to reflect on everything you write: Why are you writing that? Am I using correct punctuation, spelling, grammar, new words?, etc…

Become an observer of life, automatically this will allow you to be more detail-.oriented which means that you will start paying more attention to the details and will make a conscious effort to understand causes instead of just the effects. Finally and not least important, always look for new words in the dictionary; you can start by looking for synonyms of words which you already use a lot, and then try to use those synonyms instead, this will allow you to increase your vocabulary as well for whenever you’re ready to adopt your own writing style.
