Creative Writing.?

Question

I am allowed to write about anything in any style of writing.
I am having a complete mind block at the moment!!
Its for coursework.

What would you write about?
In what style? (poem, story...)

Answer 1

If it were me, I'd write a short story. I rather like the spy/political thriller genre.
Good luck with yours.

Answer 2

You should do something about how you feel at that moment. Just make up a story or even write a poem. But you should do it with feeling!!

Answer 3

A story is good and there is advice that you should write about something you know about or that happened to you. How about writing it in the form of a diary but using e-mails to reflect the modernization of writing. You could for example be writing .e-mails to find your birth mother (if you were adopted). I would write them on my computer to made up e-mail addresses (and print them). e.g an e-mail to the adoption place saying you are looking for your mother, were you were born etc, who adopted you. A made-up e-mail from the agency saying they will look and update you, an e-mail you write to your friend about how the search makes you feel, an e-mail to your adoptive parents explain how grateful you are, what great parents they are, how if you find your mother/father it will not change your relationship with them, an e-mail from the agency that they have found your birth mother and an e-mail you send to your birth mother. OR you could be sending e-mails to an Ana group, explaining how anorexia makes you feel, with e-mails back from a fellow friend and perhaps then an e-mail from someone else in that group saying that the friend has died etc. You could do a love story or even do one were you are Anne Boleyn and are e-mailing your friend/sister/dad about your relationship with Henry. I would print out the e-mails and place in a folder for the coursework.

Answer 4

why not watch one of your favorite movies and look for ideas? or sit back and watch it, then reflect on why it's your favorite movie... and then create a character based on that (maybe someone who's obsessed with the main character- I have a friend, seriously, who thinks Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice is her dream man and lusts after him... I haven't really gotten all the details from her though, I think it's better for me not to know!).

Do you have a pet? why not create a story about your pet? Or what kind of pet you ALWAYS wanted and what you'd do (be it fictional or real or a combination of both) to get one.

I would write a short story about it... but I haven't always been into poems, so that's not my forte.

Just a couple of ideas...

Good luck and enjoy!

Answer 5

How about writing a short story about how someting came about? Like... it doesn't have to be really how something came about. I would pick an invention or an activity and make up a humorous story about how someone stumbled upon it and invented it.

Answer 6

I would write a scary story. I wrote one and got 100 points for it in the creative writing class i was in.

Answer 7

i think a story would be much more interesting and it expresses your feeling on the topic
