If there is any task that best captures what it means to be human, the act of creative writing might be it. There is no other species that expresses emotion in the stanzas of a poem, teaches history through a five act play, or constructs a fantasy world through a series of novels. In the real world, a report tells readers what happened. Creative writers, by contrast, create altogether new happenings. Such writers taken inspiration from real events, people, and places, but weave entirely new things out of them.

What does it mean to be a creative writer? What is the difference between creative writing and other modes of writing? How would you define creative reading, and why must writers be creative readers as well?

As you prepare to write an original poem this week, let’s begin with a simple question. What is a poem? Some people would say poetry is a set of stanzas that have meter and rhyme. However, not all poetry rhymes, and not all of it has a consistent rhythm. Still, others would describe poetry as an emotional form of writing, but some poems do not seem to evoke emotion at all. Many people would say poetry uses symbols and figurative language, but again, these features are not universal to poetry. The point is that poetry is not as rigid a term as one might think:

In your view, what characterizes a piece of writing as a poem? Is there any single element that a poem must have in order to be considered a poem? What characteristics distinguish a poem from prose? Why do you think that poetry can be more challenging for readers?

What are the makings of a strong short story?

Edgar Allan Poe (famed American short story writer and poet) believed that a good story depended on a “unity of effect.” For Poe, a story was a carefully constructed set of parts that worked together for a common purpose or theme. The more unified a story was, the more successful it was. The parts must work together for the benefit of the whole.

How would you define the elements of a successful short story? Considering essential elements, such as plot, setting, dialogue, and character, what does it mean to say that a short story is successful? Which elements within a short story that are more important than others to a story’s success? Provide some examples.
