While I was reading the the DK Handbook rhetoric section, many things came to my attention, but three of them caught my eye.
The first one was about writing something that readers respond to. This is significant because when a person takes the time to write about something, they should be able to know how their work altered someone's thoughts or a certain outlook on a difficult or controversial topic. Secondly the purpose of writing interested me because it is a very important aspect of writing. A writer writes so their audience can understand them and their views on certain subjects. Also a writer's purpose is for their work to inspire people to act or do something about it. Lastly writing in context to your audience mattered to me because it is revealing aspect to it. If a local newspaper writes about something going on in a distant town or city, that community is not going to put that much care in reading about it. However, if that paper wrote about something that could greatly affect that community, there will be awareness and something can be done to help that situation.
