Creative writing describes several approaches of writing, all of which assume that the act of writing is a creative-linguistic process, to which every person can be methodically guided. Hence creative writing exceeds the classical writing education. Because of different approaches concerning the basics, methods, and goals, a consistent description can hardly be given.
Technically, creative writing can be considered any writing of original composition that is in no way guilty of plagiarism. It is more commonly considered to be any writing, fiction or non-fiction, that goes outside the bounds of normal professional, journalistic, academic, and technical forms. In this sense creative writing is a more contemporary and process-oriented name for what has been traditionally called literature, including the variety of its genres. The practice of "professional writing is not excluded from creative writing — one can be doing both in the same action. |
