You don't want to write like them anyway, there's nothing more rewarding than developing your own voice in your work.

Case in point: Terry Pratchett will never be successfully mimicked.

I got 40,000 words into my first serious novel before I realised I was basically writing Night Watch. Which seemed kinda superfluous, given that it had already been written. Out with the editing chainsaw!!
