Persuasive Writing

Persuasive writing is a type of writing where your main goal is to persuade or convince someone to do something that you want them to do.  A form of persuasive writing is a letter written to someone telling him or her a complaint that you have.  In order to write a persuasive letter you need to have reasons why the person should do what you are suggesting.  You also need reasons why your idea might not be the greatest.  So you basically have reasons from your perspective and from someone who thinks the opposite of you.  Try to make your letters or pieces of writing as convincing as you can!  Give reasons to support your cause and explain what the consequences will be if the things you are listing aren't done.  Lastly, your conclusion should restate what you are trying to persuade the person to do.
