Alrighty, it's style time. My immediate thought was how my was how my English 15 professor told me I have no trace of seriousness in any of my writing, although this may have to do that my topics were stuff like mac and cheese and why Batman is the best superhero of all time. Yeah, I didn't take classes very seriously freshman year.
So for the first reading, on readability, I have several thoughts. I have noticed that my favorite books are the easy readers that go super fast. Sure I love some Game of Thrones, which has a much higher reading level, but given a choice I am going for a James Patterson book over War and Peace. I think my writing is the same, where I tend to write at a low "reading level". I just don't think reading level really matters for how people enjoy books. I don't think it matters.
So tone is really important in writing. Just ask anyone who has an awkward moment due to a text/email not conveying sarcasm correctly. This will be especially important for my story idea (if I can run with it) because I want it to be scary and tense, and that is all dependent on tone (no jokes this time round)
