What's wrong with copying another writer's style?
In my case, it feels like they're coming off as
too much of a copy of Will Henry, if you know what I mean. I don't mind acknowledging that he's an inspiration; I just don't want it to read like I lifted a chapter from one of his books, changed the names (and a few other details), and submitted it to the Library.
Of course, now having said this, if I ever do submit a story, I suspect that I am going to have several of you comparing it to Mr. Henry's works.
