"Learning how to write never ends."  This is true. People must learn how to write for their discipline but also for audiences outside their discipline. Think of a nurse who uses the APA style to write in school and in nursing articles. Now that nurse is tasked to write for a lifestyle magazine, encouraging readers to get healthscreenings. Now the nurse has to write a call to arms, which is very different from academic and healthcare literature. Learning to adapt your writing style to fit the audience, is a skill that is similar to emotional intelligence when "reading the room."
