J.A. Beard (jabeard) That's very fascinating. It's interesting the way it influenced School of Ages.

Did you notice Potok's distinctive style influencing you, Matt?

Matt Posner (mattposner) | 276 comments I don't find any style similarity. My writing has always been dialogue-driven, and Potok's is not, at least in this particular book. It is mostly summary. I try to vary my style depending upon the project, but it isn't easy. My current WIP I am basing the style upon Mario Puzo's in The Godfather.
