Audience and Genre

      Audience and Genre are connected and they influence each other. If we know who the audience are while we write, we are most likely to choose a genre that will attract these specific audience. For example, if we know we are writing to people who have status above us, we are likely to write formally and decorously. Vice versa, if we know the assigned genre of our writing, we are most likely able to guess who the audience will be. Understanding both the genre and the type of audience will help us better compose the writing, making it appealing to the readers as well as fulfilling the requirements for a specific type of writing.

  1. Good job! You do a good job of explaining how genre and audience influence each other. If you were to revise this post, I would suggest that you focus on matching articles to the nouns they modify (for example, "audience" is a singular noun, so you would write "this specific audience" instead of "these specific audience").
