Five ways to improve creative writing skills
Creative writing skills are an important aspect for a writer as it is a way
of communication through writing with the reader. It is little tough for any starter but it gets better with time. It is a form where the writer produces imagination, innovation which creates a story that is visualized by the reader when it reads its writing. The five ways to improve creative writing skills are:- 1. Punctuations: - While writing we can use various punctuation marks, which would create a different sense and cause an impact on the reader as it reads through the article. It can make the reader understand the writing with expressions.
2. Visual description: - Using of photographs for describing different
things, especially in children story books creates a visual imagination in the child making it read more and enjoy the story.
3. Using active voice instead of passive voices: - Using of passive
voice most of the time is one of the most common manifestations of bad writing. In English the most basic sentence structure is subject+verb+object, it usually requires more words and use of “to be”. But there in science writings wherein passive voice is generally used.
4. Using of simple, clear and direct words: - For a good creative
writing, it must be simple, clear and direct. Using of a multi syllable words is not a good way when it can be expressed in a short one. It is all about using of right words and not just filling the page. If a phrase does not add anything valuable it is of no use.
5. Avoiding generalization: - One must avoid generalization of any
fact without examining it, as it may create a kind of negative impact in the mind of the reader. Generalization of given facts is considered but if we try to compare with things that we have not gone through may make the writing a bad one.
