The Writing Situations

 Purpose

The model shows the four components that must be considered in every writing.

1. PURPOSE
All kinds of writing require specific goals. This the crucial part where you have to maintain a clear and
specific objective, regardless of the piece/type of writing you are working in.

2. AUDIENCE
Writing is effective only when the readers receive and understand what the writer intends to send.

3. SUBJECT
When you write, your subject can be someone or something. Sometimes, you write about yourself, your
own interests, feelings, experiences, values, and others. Your subject must be well-developed and
explained to inform and communicate your views to your audience effectively.

4. WRITER
Your identity of personality is revealed by your words, tone, approaches, and attitudes in writing. Your
characteristics as a writer will influence not only what is written but also your intended readers.
