Tone refers to an author’s use of words and writing style to convey his or her attitude towards a topic. Tone is often defined as what the author feels about the subject. What the reader feels is known as the mood. You can usually find a tone by asking these three questions:  Why was this written? Who is the intended audience? What does the author want the reader to learn, understand, or think about? In formal writing, your tone should be clear, concise, confident, and courteous. In informal writing, your tone is more subjective, but you should always aim to communicate clearly. Genre sometimes determines the tone.
