 Four different types of writing techniques

• Descriptive

• Narrative

• Persuasive

• Expository

Descriptive

Immerses the reader into a story by creating a vivid picture of characters, settings, and events in their mind.

The purpose of the descriptive writing style is to make the reader feel like they are experiencing the events for themselves.

Examples include poems, personal journals, and lyrics.

Narrative

expands upon the descriptive writing style and tells an entire story with a beginning, middle and end.

Narrative writing style follows a clear storyline and plot, such as a fictional novel, screenplay, or memoir.

Writers who use a narrative writing style often use literary tools like foreshadowing and flashbacks in their writing. 

 Persuasive

is used to convince or influence the reader to believe or do what the writer wants them to do.

The persuasive writing style requires the writer to combine research and logical reasoning with an emotional connection that persuades the reader to adopt the writer’s personal opinions and beliefs. 

Expository

 is used to inform, explain, or describe something to the reader.

The expository writing style is one of the most common types of writing and answers questions the reader has, such as what, why and how.

When using an expository writing style, the writer needs to separate their opinion from the facts they are sharing (“The 4 Main Writing Styles: When and How You Should Use Them,” n.d.).

Authors with this purpose set out to captivate or interest the audience.
