Chapter 2 Prompt Response

In this last week I've done quite a few different types of writing some of which are,
1. Texting 
2. Facebook Posts
3. Job Applications
4. Blogging
5. Informative Drawings
Out of those listed I find the three that differ the most from one another are Texting, Blogging, and Job Applications. 
Firstly, texting. As an example I will use the conversation my girlfriend and I had about meeting up in order to see one another. As far as the genre is concerned my point was to explain to her to try to work with what is best for both of us and not necessarily just what works for one of us. My tone was more so casual considering I've known her for many months. My audience was equivalent to an audience for friends. Therefore I was close with my audience and she was already interested in what I had to say. My purpose was to  have us be able to hang out on a day that works out best for us. My stance was objective, overall it worked well and we have completed the objective.

Secondly, blogging. This is completely new to me and so it was a complete different type of writing. The genre, most recently, was concerning evaluation about writers, authors and genres. My tone was more formal than texting but not over the top formal. My audience could be many many different people but as to be safe I stuck with the idea that it would be complete strangers. My purpose was to complete an objective set by the professor. My stance was objective since I wanted to finish it. The context was limited in some stance since it was an in class assignment.

Lastly, job applications. Compared to the two previous topics this was different in almost every single way.  My genre was both an evaluation and explanation. My tone was extremely formal due to the fact that I was looking to show them respect and hopefully impress them. My audience was a potential employer and I had no relationship with them at all besides a stranger in which I need to show the utmost respect. My purpose was to try to get them to hire me and my stance was extremely objective and supportive. The context being nothing but information.
