Restricts creativity- Having a consistent style can become boring after a while. A reader may lose interest. They may become unhappy and dissatisfied because with what they are reading. Having a consistent style can kill the creativity and cause predictability. With having one consistent style, you leave almost no room for creativity. If you changed things up from time to time, you would not be considered as having a consistent style. When talking about being a journalist for a newspaper or magazine, and you relatively write about the same way from week to week, people may begin to question whether you are able to expand on your thoughts and branch out to another style of writing.
Enhances creativity- As stated in the text, “Consistent style is the hallmark of a professional.” Having a consistent style makes it easier for the reader to recognize what they are about to read and keeps them focused into the material. Being able to have creativity in your writing to me is another way of showing that you are a professional. Not only does having creativity in your writing show that you are versatile, but it also keeps the reader asking for more. It will spark the interest of the reader and always keep them guessing exactly what your next piece may be about.
The feelings on both cases can somewhat contradict and clash with one another, but ultimately, it is based on your own personal opinion on the issue.
