Good writers use different writing techniques to fit their purpose for writing. To be a good writer, you must master each of the following writing techniques.              1. Description                            Through description, a writer helps the reader use the senses of feeling, seeing, hearing, smelling, and tasting to experience what the writer experiences. Description helps the reader more clearly understand the people, places, and things about which the writer is writing. It is the most common form of writing. You will find descriptive writing in newspapers, magazines, books, and most other forms of written communication.                           2. Exposition                              Through exposition, a writer informs, explains, and clarifies his/her ideas and thoughts. Exposition goes beyond description to help the reader understand with greater clarity and depth the ideas and thoughts of the writer. Expository writing, like descriptive writing, is commonly found in newspapers, magazines, books, and most other forms of written communication.                           3. Narration                              Through narration, a writer tells a story. A <a href="http://www.how-to-study.com/novels.htm" target="_blank">story</a> has characters, a setting, a time, a problem, attempts at solving the problem, and a solution to the problem. Bedtime stories are examples of short stories while novels are examples of long stories. The scripts written for movies and plays are further examples of narrative writing.                           4. Persuasion                             Through persuasion, a writer tries to change a reader's point of view on a topic, subject, or position. The writer presents facts and opinions to get the reader to understand why something is right, wrong, or in between. Editorials, letters to the editor in newspapers and magazines, and the text for a political speech are examples of persuasive writing.                           <img src="http://www.how-to-study.com/images/pen.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />5. Comparison and Contrast                             Through comparison and contrast, a writer points out the similarities and differences about a topic. Comparison is used to show what is alike or in common. Contrast is used to show what is not alike or not in common. Describing living conditions in 1900 and living conditions today would allow for much comparison and contrast.                           By using the writing technique that fits your purpose, you will be able to communicate your ideas effectively.              </blockquote>
