Authorial Voice in L2 Academic Writing?

Authorial Voice in L2 Academic Writing 


Can we “see” a writer's voice in his/her writing, just as we can hear a person's voice when he/she speaks?


POV - Objectivity versus subjectivity

ACA Model

Writing as interaction (Audiences)

Collocations - sound natural

Lexical bundles...help

Hedges - reduce risks

Four-square writing - linear writing

Gricean Maxims - Quality, Quantity, Relation, and Manner

New Information and Given Information - Flow

Working with constraints

Academic Corpus

Grammarly (Checking)
