A lot of authors have writing techniques which they use quite a lot because they like them! For example Charles Dickens used to like writing things as though they are a list.
My personal favourites include: pathetic fallacy, extended metaphors and juxtaposition.
So what about you guys? Let’s discusa our favourite writing techniques and why we like using them.
I like using similes and oxymorons because it makes me think more creatively.
I love a good oxymoron
I love symbolism, metaphors, foreshadowing, imagery, juxtaposition, indirect characterization and critical theory. Especially symbolism and foreshadowing.
I love foreshadowing!
And when an object is used for it… amazing!
Same, they’re so fun! I’m gonna need them for my story.
Foreshadowing 
I love swearing and metaphors
Does writing way too long sentences count as a writing technique?
And repeating something a few times throughout a text?
Long sentences are a technique. You use it to control the breathing of the reader. Often short sentences are used to build suspense because your breaths would be shorter.
Yup repetition is also a writing technique
