Local Revision: Pronoun Usage

1. Based on your analysis, how effective is your pronoun usage in Project 1? What does actively examining your pronoun usage tell you about your writing style?

The majority of the pronouns refer to Adria Richards. In each paragraph, I use her name once and then use pronouns as needed. The rest all correspond to the correct subject. I do not see any immediate revisions that need to be made from my pronoun usage.

2. Are there any instances in your project where you speak to or refer directly to the audience? If so, how effective are these moments at creating a bond or connection between audience and author? If not, why not? Explain why you're choosing to leave your audience out of your writing. There's nothing wrong with that, per se, but you should be able to give a sophisticated explanation of your choices.

I do not refer directly to the audience. This piece is not necessarily targeted at people in the tech field. I want it to be more of an awareness raiser for people not directly involved. Because of this, there is not much that can be done by the reader. It is just a presentation of information.
