post #1 Audience, Purpose, & Design

Audience curently plays a large role in how i write today. My writing differs for who im writing for, my teachers see the very best of my writing, usually, and my friends see the sloppy just get to the point writing that has little design and puncuation. When writing for a proper audience my design is to the best of my ability. Design plays a huge role in my writing because if im writing with no puncuation, style, or paragraph structure no one even the audience im writing for will want to read what i wrote. When im thinking of what to write my papers on i try to make sure i have a clear purpose so i dont get lost in my writing. I want the person whos reading it to understand not get lost in the words the wrong way.
