QRG, the Genre

      The conventions of QRGs come across as a professional way to get information across and as such the writing is very formal and structured as such in order to present the information to the reader as easily as possible.
      
       The author formats their work by posing questions that the common person may have.  This is to present the reader with all the fact they may want to know and to lead them to learn more.  It allows the author to go over every part of the guide needed and the formatting is almost like a press conference where the author responds to questions that are most likely going to be asked.

       In reading a couple of different QRGs the reason for these types of writing is to inform the reader of an event that is going on whether it be a supreme court case, a controversy or an ongoing development.  These type of guides seem to be used to inform the reader about what is occurring and to give a sort of timeline of the events and the key people involved. So this type of content is more directed at those who want to get a broad overview of something.
