Reflection on Audience Awareness

1.    Linda Flower stresses the importance of audience awareness in composing while Elbow concludes that the question/issue with audience awareness is when. How would you explain the connections between these two points of view?

Audience awarness is when we do not see the writing process behind the writing. We just see the writing and it is either tangled or empty. That is not a good thing because we must be aware of what the writing is trying to say.

2.    In general, what have you learned from Linda Flower’s and Peter Elbow’s article as a writer and as a reader?

I have learned from these articles that I should use rhetorical strategies and be a reader based prose I when speaking infront of an audience do find myself closing my eyes at times but it helps me. I do not want to be a writer based prose because you do not pay attention to what others think but of themselves.
