Audience Vs. Genre and Everything In Between
Every writer has an audience. Whether their audience is a friend, family member, professor, strange or even their self, every writer has an audience. Every writer also has a genre. Whether they intend to or not, each different style of writing can be considered a genre, including poetry, personal narratives, letters, academic essays etc... Both the terms "audience" and "genre" can be applied to various aspects of life. For example, individuals watching a play or performance put on by other individuals become part of an audience. Genres on the other hand can be related to music, specifically the different types of music including rap, hiphop, pop and classical. Audience and genre are related in many ways, one being that different genres have different audiences. For example if ones audience was business men, one wouldn't write a romance novel.

Solid free write! Your last sentence is a good, concrete example of the connection between genre and audience. If you were to revise this post, I would suggest also giving more of the abstract analysis of the connection between genre and audience, which you do well in your second to last sentence.
