Creative Writing
November 17, 2008 at 9:56 pm (Goal, School) (barrier, creative writing, english, essay, how to)
This is by far my most weakest category when it comes to English writing tasks. I mean, sheesh, I can structure an essay well – just:
- Introduce the points and your argument
- Expand on your points of argument in paragraphs
- Have paragraphs introduced, expanded, explained and related thoroughly
- Conclude, summarising points and bringing up no new points
Well, isn’t creative writing the same? Specifically, short stories, and even some poems, have a similar structure, don’t they? You have to introduce your characters/setting, then put them through some sort of hell, resolve the story and it’s done for. In fact, why should anyone find creative writing harder than essay writing if you can manipulate it however you like (depending on the task), present it however you like and put in it whatever you like?
This is enough, I will conquer this creative writing block – this barrier preventing my advance in English, of sorts.
Goal: Conquer the hole in my English ability… CREATIVE WRITING!
