Topic: Types of Writing

    Persuasive writing is yet another writing type, this form is typically used in nonfiction work, to help develop logical arguments. In this type of writing logic is extremely important. When writing this kind of piece, people should pick a topic that they can provide a lot of details and support to get other to agree with what they are saying. This style of writing should have an opposing stance and should strike peoples emotions- for a better argumentative appeal. Picking a topic that one is passionate about is great for this writing form!

  

    Argumentative writing is similar to persuasive writing, except for the fact that this style requires more data and facts than an emotional standpoint. Argumentative writing needs expert opinions and proof more so than persuasive writing. When writing this people should pick a controversial topic, research, pick their side and then collect sources to draw facts from. This is more formal and is very similar to persuasive writing so it is important to keep in mind their differences when working on papers!
