Different types of writing
1. Academic Writing - is writing with a clear, concise, focused, structured and backed up by
evidence. Its purpose is to aid the reader's understanding. It has a formal tone and style, but
it is not complex and does not require the use of long
sentences and complicated vocabulary.
2. Technical Writing - a type of writing where the author is writing about
a particular subject that requires direction, instruction, or explanation.
This style of writing has a very different purpose and different
characteristics than other writing styles such as creative writing,
academic writing or business writing.
3. Expository Writing - is writing that aims to inform its reader.
As we mentioned above, this includes all types of factual
writing, like textbooks, news stories, technical guides, and pieces
of business writing.
Two things that we need to consider about writing:
- Born not made. Poets and fictionist are not born in the classroom.
A gift needed to be hone.
- Can spring anytime everybody can become a writer.
It depends upon the willingness of an individual to learn.
POINTS TO REMEMBER:
- Make better outputs than listening.
- In writing, you don’t need for a competition towards other individual, but
you need to compete for yourself.
- If you write there is need for talents, but purely knowledge.
