Reasons to be Informal

 I was actually thinking about what kind of style to write this essay in for awhile. I finally decided on an informal tone with lots of links, pictures, and a reader-friendly format. This was mainly because Anne urged us to think about writing for an invisible audience. I thought, "What kind of essay would be most appealing for me to read if I happened to stumble upon it? One that does not look like I'd be clicking back and forth between Dictionary.com, one that references examples with links so I can easily look it up without any googling on my part, and one that had a visual presence to facilitate my comprehension."
