Creative writing is any form of writing which is written with the creativity of mind: fiction

writing, poetry writing, creative nonfiction writing and more. The purpose is to express
something, whether it be feelings, thoughts, or emotions.

Rather than only giving information or inciting the reader to make an action beneficial to the
writer, creative writing is written to entertain or educate someone, to spread awareness about
something or someone, or to express ones thoughts.

There are two kinds of creative writing: good and bad, effective and ineffective. Bad, ineffective
creative writing cannot make any impression on the reader. It wont achieve its purpose.

So whether youre a novelist, a poet, a short-story writer, an essayist, a biographer or an aspiring

beginner, you want to improve your craft. The question is: how?

When you write great fiction, poetry, or nonfiction, amazing things can happen. Readers cant put
it down. The work you wrote becomes a bestseller. It becomes famous. But you have to reach to
that level first.

The best way to increase your proficiency in creative writing is to write, write compulsively, but it
doesnt mean write whatever you want. There are certain things you should know first it helps to
start with the right foot.

The trend, in English, and especially in American English, is to standardize the irregular
verbs. We do not foresee all the irregular verbs ever being standardized, but some of
the more minor variations in less commonly used words will probably disappear in the
next genration or two.

The following English irregular verbs are now obsolete and use the standard past and
participle forms (-ed).

dwell

kneel

lean

mow

smell

spell

spill

spoil

trust

** The verb lie in the meaning of not to tell the truth is a regular verb.
 *** The following verbs use the standard past and participle forms (-ed) in American
English.
