Your inner self is best way to understand you as a writer. Listening to your gut feeling is what can take your writing to new heights and then some.
People talk about creative writing like it's a hard thing to master. They say if you don't attend an accredited creative writing program then you don't know what it's like to be creative.
"WRONG!"
I personally take offense to that. I believe anyone can be creative no matter what the critics or he nay-sayers say. If you want to pen a story then start by picking up your pen and start writing. If you want to seriously pen a story, then it depends on you and how deep your passion is to tell that story. That's where your creativity comes in.
Anyone can pen a story, but it takes listening to your inner writer's soul to really tell the story. It takes reaching down in the deepest part of your soul to bring out the passion, to be able to be creative to tell the story how you want it to be told. When you do this, it will give your story depth, life, and gaping mouth readers.
Today; start listening to your inner writer's soul so your story can be infused with the true soul of a storyteller.

WHAT IS CREATIVE WRITING TO YOU?
When you think of what creative writing is to you, what are your thoughts? What story or poem pops in your head? What inspires you to write creatively?
These are things for you to think about as you read on through this post of "what is creative writing to you."
As many of already know creative writing is considered to be any writing, fiction , poetry, or non-fiction, that goes outside the bounds of normal professional, journalistic, academic, and technical forms of literature. That's the definition of creative writing in nut shell.
However, to many of us it means something totally different. We define creative writing by the way we write, tell our own stories, and how we creative a piece of poetry.
When we take ourselves the next level creatively we are creative writing in our way. It's a definition that only you the writer can give to yourself to be able to understand what kind of a writer you are or evenually want to be.
The bottom line is to think about what creative writing means to you through your own experiences, needs, wants, and style. Focus on your insecurities, vulnerabilities, and strengths to creatively capture the very essence of who you are as a writer. That alone will show you what creative writing means to you.

CREATING YOUR OWN HOLIDAY LEGACY BY STORYTELLING!
The holidays is the part of the year that most of us look forward to in a major way. It's a special time that we gather and spend time with friends and family to show how much we love each other.
For this holiday make it special by starting your own family legacy by storytelling.
It's a great way to freeze those special moments that happen during the holiday season with family and friends.
To get started designate someone who you believe has an ok writing ability (doesn't have to be a professional). Then, get all the materials like a scrap-book, pens, lots of paper, cameras and your family. After doing all of this, make sure the individual designated has all the materials needed to start the documentation.
As you attend family dinners/parties be sure to document what's happening so that you won't have much to do when the holidays are all over.
When it's complete seal it away in a safe place for years to come.
Remember the holidays are more than just gift giving. It's about family, friends and love. Take the time to create a holiday family legacy by storytelling.
