How Writing Works

A Guide to Composing Genres

Second Edition

Author Jordynn Jack and Katie Rose Guest Pryal

• The Genre Toolkit helps students identify a genre's structure, audience, and purpose
• Integrated Assignments show students how to construct a series of small assignments that lead up to a major chapter project
• Individual, Team, and Multimedia Projects draw from a variety of popular, professional, and academic examples to address rhetorical challenges of visual, written, and oral communication

New to this Edition:

• Each element of the Genre Toolkit now has its own chapter in Part 1
• Contains fewer project chapters to include the greatest hits. Each project chapter has been reduced from four genres to three coordinated examples that lead up to a chapter project.
• A simplified design provides a more open appearance, with shorter paragraphs, more headings, and more visual content to break up the writing
• Each chapter now includes learning objectives in the introduction and a recap of those objectives in the conclusion, providing students a clear idea of what they will be learning
• Includes even more voices from a wide range of writers
• More examples of exercises, sample readings, and advice on collaborative writing and multimedia composition
