Chapter 2

     I have encountered writing many different types of literature in the past week. Such as texting friends in a group chat, posting blogs, making differences charts, writing my resignation for work, writing a good experience narrative about myself, and sending emails. But texting my friends in a group chat, posting blogs, and my resignation for work have stood out. There was a different rhetorical situation for each of these. For each of these required thinking about the type of genre I wrote in, my audience, my purpose, my stance, and my design.
     When I text my friends the type of genre varies and constantly it changes. The type’s genre I’ll talk to them in can change from narratives, arguments, comedy, persuasive, and others. My audience is my friends so I feel I can speak freely with no restraints.my propose is to stay in touch with them and to make plans to hangout. My stance can vary depending on the conversation.                                                                                                                                                          

    My blog I posted this week was an informative post to the answer ‘is everyone an author?”. My audience in this case is my classmates to be discussed. So in this situation I have to write a lot more professionally then I would when texting friends.                                                                                     

     This week I turned in my resignation for work. My audience was my boss making my statement having to be professional. I had an objective stance in this statement unlike the other situations. My objective was quitting but still stay on good terms so if I had to return I would have a place to work once again.
