Persuasive and informative writings are very effective is their writing style. Each type has its own unique quirks and formats, but most are looking to draw their reader in and then give them their thoughts on the matter, to have them see what the author sees. One type of writing that is a combination of both is the problem-solution format. This pattern is used to inform a reader about an issue, drawing them in with facts and statistics that interest them, and then suggest a solution. Svoboda’s…
