So I need to post about my own blog's genre. I'd say... realistic? I put the facts down for what they are, often with plenty of typos. They're everywhere. But it's informal writing, so that's okay with me. I'm a gamer, not a writer. I write what happens in my life, then I finally get around to playing again. Drop the mic.
Okay, so as far as what I've learned from genre in this class, it's pretty simple. Depending on your audience and the type of paper you're writing (research, personal narrative, whatever) you need to write with different levels of formality, and you need to be more or less factual. Research papers are painstakingly nonfictional. Narratives can have a bit more fiction in them, as they're stories. They're meant to show something in a drawing and entertaining way.
So ya, that's what I've learned about genre.
