What does good writing look like?

I believe good writing looks very well organized and the intended audience can read it with ease. Good writing is not hard to obtain if you practice and have either peers or someone you know edit it. It is always good to have more than one person edit your paper unless you know the person editing it is like having five people edit it. Going back to the intended audience, the writer will have vocabulary in the paper that each person reading it will understand. That is not saying they won't have upper level vocabulary, that is just saying they will have vocabulary that isn't above the level of the intended audience. I believe good writing and a good writer doesn't have just the bare minimum of writing they have in the middle if not to the max of what the teacher/boss wants them to have.
