All theorists believe that everyday writing is more personal and handwritten. Each believe post cards are involved in everyday writing. All agreed that one kept up with postcards for banter and updates. All agreed that letters and handwritten objects were everyday writing. Writing was important for communication.
Lillis believes that everyday writing includes legislative documents, religion, and tax forms. We don't agree with her because documents and tax forms are mass produced and formal. Religion is not everyday writing since it is another category in itself.
Lyons thought postcards were the main form of everyday writing and how everyday writing was the main form of communication with the soldiers in WWI, and how for jobs, you needed good penmanship.
Gillen & Hall agrees with Lyons in how everyday writing was the main form of communication. But they believed that women were the main writers.
