Hi guys, been writing for a while (3+ hours a day for more than 5 months) and noticing that I'm developing two distinct styles. Will these coalesce as I "find my voice" or are there other writers who have more than one style? Has anyone else gone through this?
FYI one's like a Will Self / Sam Lipsyte funny funny style and one's a Carver ripoff.

Will Self isn't funny, he's sardonic. Carver isn't great, a rip off will be worse. What have you published?

Sardonic people can be funny though can't they, I think we both know that Will Self is funny. I like Carver, what do you think of him? Nothing yet, I want to create something that is sincerely mine and not shit before I send something off.
you do know voice is different from tone right

Is Hunger Games written in present tense? How horrifying.

Maybe just the "action scenes" who knows dude. Most people I talk to don't even know what tense is anymore.

Yeah, most YA fiction is written in the present tense because it apparently adds more "immediacy" to the text.
