Audience, purpose and design.

Usually, my audience consists of either some kind of teacher or other pupils in a class. I don't write too much outside of class, but that doesn't mean I don't like to write. Audience does play a large role in my writing because there are just some things that you would not say in a paper for your English class, that you might mention somewhere else. I try to keep controversial topics and such to a minimum in my papers, unless that is what the paper is about. I just try to meet the guidelines set by the teacher and get a good grade. If I wanted to throw my opinions at people, I would get my own radio talk show or something.

Again, the purpose of most of my papers are school-related. I generally adhere to such things as proper paragraph formatting when writing a paper for school...much more then I would for say, Facebook.

I liked how you are more straight forward in your writing. When I write I tend to have a hard time getting to the point, and staying on topic.

Hey, you are not in my group, but there is only one other person in group as of right now. thus, i need another person to comment on.

Anyhoot, like amanda said, i believe that you did a good job in getting straight to the point. I also liked the fact that you were clear and precise on how you would write in oder to get your audiences' attention.
