Get the Write off mug.1.A writer or author who uses a technique of writing in which he/she identifies emotionally with a character in the story and assumes that character's persona in the telling. Novels and stories exhibiting this style are almost always first person. This writing style allows insights into a character's motives, reactions and thoughts that usually can only be inferred from other styles. Author's using this technique may describe the sensation of writing as if they were spiritually channeling the character.
