Creative Writing (2nd Edition)

Summary

You love to read. You've done a little bit if writing yourself. And you have always wondered if you could be a writer like those incredibly creative writers you admire, but you're not sure where to start or what to do.

Okay, This book will help. It will direct you through the whole process, from getting ready to write — in your office and in your mind— to having fresh ideas to draft and edit your own edition.

Plus you'll learn all about the different writing formats and find hundreds of writing ideas, tools, illustrations and guidance. This book will teach you how to develop your writing skills and express yourself imaginatively in a variety of ways if you have the opportunity and the ability to become a more creative writer— and it looks like you do — and if you are willing to take the time to learn and practice it.

It is entirely possible, with determination, skill building and time, that you could become another great writer. You might create a style that is so poetic, so real, and so unique, that whenever someone reads something you've written, he or she might wish, to be a great friend of yours as the author and could call you on the phone anytime they feel like it." The idea is overwhelming, to put it mildly. There is yet another potential downside, however. While you are bravely giving your all to this writing thing, you may run into resistance rather than encouragement. Friends, colleagues, friends, kids, even your partner or spouse might try to discourage you by telling you what you already know: you may struggle, you might get hurt your feelings, you might not have what it takes. This book will give you the confidence boost you need.
