Journal 7
The audience plays a huge role in my writing. It sets the tone of my paper and lets me decide how formal or lax I should be. It also lets me know what level of detail and information i need to include. In the media and advertisements, they know how directly appeal to their target audience to get them to watch a show or movie, or go out and buy a product. keeping your audience in mind can help you to understand what they want to hear and make a better impression on them. Knowing what your audience is looking for makes it easier to win them over and achieve whatever goal you are aiming for with your writing. If you keep in mind that a writer is appealing to a specific audience, it can help you become a better reader too. Learning to read something from different perspectives can maximize the meaning and purpose of the writing, and help you to see things that you might have overlooked.

It's good to hear that you already pay so much attention to audience when you write- do you pay attention to audience when you read too?
