Phillip Said:

What type of writing style did Mark Twain have?

We Answered:

Although he began writing during the romantic era, the writing of Mark Twain (Samuel L. Clemens) is considered, realist.
Mark Twain was known around the world as a humorist; while he was alive he gave lectures and speeches worldwide. He's one of the first persons known to have worldwide fame. He had rockstar status, worldwide, long before there was such a thing as rockstars.
Some of his books (Following The Equator, etc.) were written like travel logs. Some more of his books (The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Roughing It, Life On The Mississippi, etc.) were written like historical fiction; yet, they were actually quite autobiographical.
Before he died (in 1910) he wrote (5000 pages of) an autobiography that he said he didn't want published for a hundred years. Last year (in 2010) the first volume (730 pages) of his autobiography was issued and it is now on the New York Times bestseller list.

Citing Sources

Citing ppl. noting the source of a quote, paraphrase, or idea as an authority or proof.

Citing is the process of giving credit to the sources you used to write your paper. Citations can be located in the text or at the end of the work in a bibliography. It can be difficult to figure out what needs to be credited.

Use this rule of thumb: If you knew a piece of information before you started doing research, generally you do not need to credit it. You also do not need to cite well-known facts, such as dates, which can be found in many encyclopedias. All other information such as quotations, statistics, and ideas should always be cited in your papers.
