Choosing the Best Form
At a restaurant, you have a lot of menu options. What will you have? That depends. What time of day is it? How hungry am I? What foods do I like best? What foods am I allergic to? You think of all these things as you settle on the perfect meal.
When you are choosing a writing form, you go through a similar process. You ask yourself these questions:
- Why am I writing?
- Who are my readers?
- What am I writing about?
Answering these questions will help you choose the best form for any communication situation. Then you can dig in!
