1 Four Different Types of Writing Styles
Reading Strategies 9 October 16th, 2013

2 Expository Writing Expository writing is a subject-oriented writing style, in which the main focus of the author is to tell you about a given topic or subject, and leaves out their opinions. This is one of the most common types of writing styles, which you always see in textbooks and “How To” articles. Expository writing is usually in a logical order and sequence.

3 Descriptive Writing Descriptive writing is a style of writing which focuses on describing a character, an event or a place in great detail. It is sometimes poetic in nature in which the author is specifying the details of the event rather than just the information of what happened. The author visualizes to you what he sees, hears, tastes, smells and feels.

4 Persuasive Writing Persuasive writing, unlike expository writing, contains the opinions, biasness and justification of the author. Persuasive writing is a type of writing which contains justifications and reasons to make someone believe in what the author believes in. In persuasive writing, the author takes a stand and asks you to believe their point of view.

5 Narrative Writing Narrative writing is a type of writing in which the author places himself as the character and narrates the story. Novels, short stories, poetry and biographies can all fall into the narrative writing category. Narrative writing often has situations like disputes, conflicts, action, motivational events, problems and solutions.
