The Many Different Writing Styles

I never really knew how many styles of writing there were before taking English 101. I found it quite interesting to learn about all the different styles of writing there are. One of the most interesting things about writing I learned was Aristotle’s rhetorical syllogism. This caught my attention right away especially because I had never heard of rhetorical syllogism before. Learning about ethos, pathos, and logos was difficult at first but soon came easy after applying them to my essays. I really enjoyed going through reading materials and picking out ethos, pathos, and logos. It was a challenge, but a fun one at the same time. Another style of writing I first found to be difficult, but one that will now stick with me was writing to analyze. This concept was hard for me to understand, until I really grasped the idea of what analyzing something meant. I think that learning about the different styles of writing will definitely help me in my future when writing, especially in English 102. Learning about these styles of writing now has given me a head start for my future writing assignments. I am eager to apply theses styles to future essays or even perhaps when writing a blog.
