What to Focus On

  • Imagination is central to creative writing.
  • Different people react to words according to their own experience.
  • Factual writing is usually similar across writers.
  • An analogy can extend one comparison across several points.
  • The town is compared to an animal to create a lively picture.
  • Word choice can give an object a living or emotional quality.
  • Creative writing may use unusual sentence structures for effect.
  • Repeated 'and' can create movement and rhythm.
  • Normal factual writing usually avoids such heavy chaining.
