Poe wants to explain the writer's process to an outside observer. Selecting nonfiction, specifically the expository essay, is appropriate because expository essays examine a topic in an organized way. The expository essay makes use of logical examples and explanations to support an idea, which is well suited to Poe's purpose. Whereas King wants to explain how he became a "good writer" (King's words) to a fellow writer. Selecting nonfiction, specifically the memoir, is appropriate because memoirs recount personal experiences and development, the exact ideas addressed by King. The memoir makes use of narrative techniques, which would allow an author who is explaining how he became a "good writer" to use evidence from his life easily.

Brums [2.3K]
It is difficult to write a PSA or a Public Service Announcement that operates in just sixty (60) seconds because you have to consider a lot of factors into writing it. First, you consider what message you want to convey. Second, you consider what kind of audience you're targeting. Lastly, you have to make sure that the PSA will effectively convey the message to the target audience in such short amount of time.

Now that you've spotted the problems of shift of person and shift of number, revise the paragraph by removing these inconsistenc
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Paragraph rewritten with consistency: " In the story, "The Valiant Woman" by J. J. Powers, we find that in judging people we overlook most of the characteristics that draw us to him (them), but we do so without realizing it. You (we) can draw inaccurate conclusions about a person by misjudging their facial expressions, their physical stamina, and their obvious personality traits. When people (we) are blinded by false superiority, they (we) judge a person incorrectly because they (we) fail to see them as they really are."

Explanation:

To generate consistency in the above passage, you must keep the message linked to a single narrative, keeping pronouns fixed to something or someone. For this it is necessary that you when speaking with readers always use the pronouns "we", "us", while, when referring to the people being judged, always use the pronouns "they" and "them". In this way the passage will show consistency, as shown above.
