10-6 classwork

Why is it helpful to think about this topic now? 
I think it is helpful to think about this topic now instead of my senior year because this will help me improve my writing. I am going to have to write a lot of papers between now and my senior year. If I don't learn how I prepare or don't prepare now then I might not ever prepare right. I want to become to the best writer I can while I am still a freshman. When I get to my senior year, I still want to become a better writer, but becoming a better writer won't help me as much then.

What are the goals of your paper?
The goals I have for this paper are to see how I need to prepare better to write a paper. I know I need a lot of help when it comes to writing papers, and I hope this paper helps with realizing what I need to write. In this paper I want to think about all the places I have written before. I want to think about where I have written best. If I have written best in my room or Starbucks or sitting in a classroom. I want to take in all the things going on around me whenever I write and see what environment I write best.

Who do you want your audience to be? And how do you want them to react?
I would like my audience to be my English teacher. I don't know how I want him to react yet because I don't even know what I'm writing about. I know what the paper should be about, but I have no idea what I am actually going to put on the paper. I guess another audience would be the people revising my paper for me. So that would include, my peers and the writing lab. I don't' know how I want them to react either. I guess the only thing I can think of for how I want them to react is, helping. I want them to be able to read my paper and then feel like helping me, so I can become the best writer to my abilities. And also turn the paper in to the best of my abilities.

What kind of linguistic constraints does your audience have?
Since my audience is an adult (my teacher) and teenagers or young adults (my peers), I think it will be okay to use big words. I wont' have to write like I am talking to a little third grader. I can write about big kids things. I won't have to go into much detail with certain things because my audience will be older.
