Audience and Voice Introduction

Audience and Voice Piece,” What’s Your Community?” Community Blog Introduction

When I was deciding what community to write about I chose rock music because of its diverse nature. We have a diverse college community and I know the audience is open to many things. There are stereotypes about this community, but there are also ways that this community brings so many different groups of people together, and I thought that would appeal to the audience. “The community of "rockers" is held together by a love for rock music. It is held together by an appreciation for musical talent and variety. Some rock music has deep meaning behind it, and some is meant for just banging your head too. Whichever it is, we all love and cherish it. It is a part of our lives.” This section of my writing states the audience I am writing to and the specific purpose of this community. These types of “public” writings have helped my ability to discuss a wide variety of topics. The class blogs give great personal stories a chance to be brought into serious topics. If I can combine this type of writing with some more in depth critical thinking and analysis, then my writing will continue to advance.
