What I find most difficult about switching between the academic and mass media styles of writing is switching my brain between the two. My entire school career until this point has been formatted to one style of writing that I can follow easily, but now, this class has spun my writing format around to something more technical and to the point. I constantly find myself adding too many details and wanting to add in a opinion, so I’m always rereading what I do because I need to catch that. I also am reading more newspapers lately, looking at how they format, what they include, and the kind of descriptions used, for inspiration and guidelines that I try to emulate in my own work.
