Writing within a genre depends mostly on the audience you're writing for. The audience, of course, can be anybody: your peers, girlfriend, college, business, etc. A paper must be worded with the audience in mind to get your point across. Constructing a paper requires knowledge of your audience, but it might also require facts, examples, pictures, or quotes, depending on what genre you're writing in. For example, in an argumentative paper there needs to be facts to support your opinion. Once you've considered your audience and considered what resources you'll need, putting the paper together is fairly easy. This process is almost automatic for some genres, like a letter to a friend or a poem, while others might require background knowledge, research and detail on the topic, like a research or analysis paper.
