Each of your characters has a voice. It makes them uniquely them. That voice can sound different to different characters and can change over time if your story takes place over many years.
Listen to Frank Sinatra. He had a clear voice in the early days. Harry Connick Jr. sounds a lot like early Sinatra. As Sinatra aged, his voice turned huskier and weakened in his later years.
Again your character's voice is not theirs alone. It's a cooperative effort between the character, other characters, you, and you reader.
I want to help move writers' careers along. Is what I am saying helpful?
