Style Analysis
How to analyze a project's prose and produce style reference files that writer and critic agents can use.
Style Has Dimensions
Style varies independently along multiple axes — some bound to a character, some to a scene type, some to both, some that cross everything. The first job is identifying what dimensions exist in this project, not arriving with a predetermined taxonomy.
Look at the text: what varies independently? If a character's narration voice changes by scene type, that's two dimensions interacting. If action pacing stays consistent regardless of narrator, that's scene-bound. The text tells you where the boundaries are.
