Motive Question
The TONE is the attitude of the author towards the subject, the
reader, or the characters. It is how the writer feels about what
he or she is writing. The author conveys the tone by the setting,
characters, word choice, and other details along the way.
The MOOD is the feeling the reader gets from reading the
author’s words. It is the feeling the reader or listener has about
the text. It could be the same as tone, but not always.
