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.

DOUBLE DUTY!

Taking care of business when your a writer is absolutey essential to your literary career.

That means, doing double duty as the writer and the editor is key. It's important to understand that checking your work as you go is what's going to save time in the end. It doesn't mean you shouldn't have an outside source edit your work. What it means is that, you as the writer should be aware of your work and aware of simple mistakes that you can correct.

If you truly want to dive into the writing business, you have to wear two hats; writer and editor. Doing this can save you time, and money down the road and keeps you aware of your own work, as you get it ready for publication. 

Today think about your writing. Think about what you do to make it better, and what you could be doing to make it fantastic.

Wearing two hats will say alot about you, and your writing as you progress in your literary career.
