Writing with pictures is a huge way to get a mental picture of what the writer is trying to get across to the reader. McCloud states that there are two things that storytellers want from the audience, understanding what the writer tells them and wanting them to care enough to finish the whole story. Clarity from the writer impacts how the reader will read and follow the pictures in an effective way of understanding the story. Making sure the writer will break down the story enough for the reader to understand and make sure the images follow the sequence. Next is persuading the audience to stay with the story until it is done. If a reader starts a story and it is not organized, it is pretty likely they will not understand or be engaged in the story and not finish it.

Clarity and persuasion are two major roles that affect the writer and reader in several ways. The writer has many decisions to make about the font, imagery, dialogue, and composition because each choice is vital in making the comic by each choice of moment, frame, image, word and flow. I would not think there are that many details into making a comic, since if the reader does see a certain part of the story they can just visualize it but in comics each step of the story is broken down. The smallest parts of the story are the most imporant because if the reader does not see a small part, the whole story is thrown off and they wonder how something happened if they did not see it.
