¶ … Narrative writing This type of writing makes the readers actually feel, see and hear what has been felt, seen and heard by the writer. This writing could describe anything such as a person, place or any other entity. The main purpose of the writer is to reveal its subject by careful selection of details. It is often seen that description involves a single personality or entity and how it changed its surroundings through its own actions or by other's actions on itself. The main aim is often to put the reader on the place of subject entity so that the reader could see the world from its perspective.

It is commonly seen that biographies and autobiographies involve the usage of descriptive/narrative writing by the authors. Many tend to give the world their own point-of-view on how they see the world so that the masses might agree with them in their decision-making, others just provide a true account of the actual events and leave the decision-making on the reader itself.

Let's see an example of Descriptive writing. In an essay titled My First Guitar, the writer tells the reader about the experiences it had with its first guitar. He tells the reader about the description of the guitar itself i.e. how it looked like in detail, how the writer used it for himself and how this guitar changed the writer.

Explanatory writing

organizes the ideas, information and concepts by the usage of strategies like classification,...

Then the topic is developed which involves definition, relevant facts, quotations, concrete details and other information with examples. Then the usage of appropriate transitions is done so that the relationships are clarified among concepts and ideas. The usage of precise language with appropriate vocabulary is also a necessity from the writer. Finally it is essential to maintain a formal style to the whole writing itself.
The purpose of comparison and contrast in this whole scenario is to differentiate one entity from another which in most cases are found to be relatively similar by the readers. Therefore the explanation and comparison done by the author must take note of a great amount of details which are usually ignored by any common individual on the subject matter. Let's review an example of this type of writing, the comparison and contrast between the terms obesity and overweight. Although many individuals confuse one with the other or think that they both mean the same thing, in actual terms they are not the same thing but rather differ significantly.
