Seven Inspiring Journal Ideas
photo credit: Auzigog
Every expert in the world thinks you should keep a journal. Physical trainers suggest keeping an exercise journal, and nutritionists recommend keeping track of your meals. Oprah insists on a gratitude journal, and business consultants promote journaling throughout one's career.
How much journal writing can one person do?
Of course, journals are, first and foremost, the forté of writers. Journal writing provides a sacred space where thoughts, ideas, stories, and poems can be recorded. We turn to our journals for inspiration and when we're inspired.
Some journals are topical while others are a hodgepodge. You might use several different journals, each for different projects or topics, or you might use one journal for everything. There's no right or wrong way, and there are no limits to the journal ideas you can use to inform and inspire your creative writing projects. Read More
8 Common Creative Writing Mistakes
We all make mistakes in our writing. The most common mistake is the typo — a missing word, an extra punctuation mark, a misspelling, or some other minor error that is an oversight rather than a reflection of the writer's skills (or lack thereof).
A more serious kind of mistake is a deep flaw in the writing. It's not a missing word; it's a missing scene. It's not an extra punctuation mark; it's an overabundance of punctuation marks. And these mistakes aren't limited to the mechanics of writing: plot holes, poor logic, and a prevalence of bad word choices are all markers of common writing mistakes that are often found in various forms and genres of creative writing.

Where to Find Creative Writing Inspiration (Art Begets Art)
Do you ever sit down to write only to discover hours later that you've done nothing but stare off into space with a blank look on your face, occasionally breaking from your stupor to notice that you haven't written a single word?
Conversely, have you ever noticed that after watching an intoxicating film or listening to a mesmerizing piece of music, you feel that creative impulse start to throb, luring you to your keyboard or notebook? Read More
What is Creative Writing?
Creative writing, like all art, is subjective, and therefore difficult to define.
Certainly fiction and poetry qualify as creative writing, but what about journal writing, articles and essays, memoirs and biographies? What about textbooks and copywriting? Technical writing? Blog posts?
Where do we draw the line between creative writing and other types of writing?
In some cases, what qualifies as creative is obvious. You read something and you know it belongs in the creative category. Other times, a piece of writing, while skillful, might not strike you as creative in nature. And then there's everything in between – stuff that's sort of creative or not quite creative enough.
Creative Writing and Art
People have been struggling to define art for centuries. Some feel that a Monet is definitely art and a child's drawing is not. Others would say that both are art, and a few would even argue that a child's work is a truer form of art because it's not developed or learned. It's completely intuitive and therefore more creative and artistic.
Creative writing presents us with the same dilemma. Does a piece of writing qualify as creative by merely existing? Would we refer to a legal document or instruction manual as a piece of creative writing? Does a straightforward essay or something like an encyclopedia article qualify as creative? What about letters or emails? Is creative writing determined by the level of skill versus talent?
For the most part, defining creative writing is a subjective pursuit. You can determine what creative writing is for yourself, but others may see things differently. Yet there are some types of writing that most of us would never refer to as creative writing, and a few types that we'd probably all agree on.
Obviously Creative Writing
As mentioned, when you think about creative writing, fiction and poetry spring to mind, possibly because the creative nature of both fiction and poetry is so obvious.
Fiction is made-up stuff borne from the imagination and therefore inherently creative. Poetry too, takes many liberties with language and imagery, and many poems are rooted almost entirely in creativity. Song lyrics also fit well with fiction and poetry, as does screenwriting, since all of these types of writing certainly require a significant level of imaginative and creative thinking.
But many other types of writing are creative as well. When you read a memoir with beautiful turns of phrase or an essay that fires up your imagination, you know that you're experiencing the writer's creativity. Conversely, when you read a bit of dry, factual material, you're positive that it's not creative writing at all.
Obviously Not Creative Writing
Have you ever read the terms and conditions or privacy policy on a website? Ever browsed through the instruction manual that came with your DVD player? Surely, you've suffered through a boring textbook.
While these types of writing may require some level of creativity, they are not usually considered members of the creative writing family. That might sound exclusive or elitist, but one of the things that defines creative writing is how enjoyable it is to read.
It's easy to glance at a poem and know that it's a piece of creative writing, and it's easy to flip through a legal document and know that it's not. The problem with defining creative writing is all the stuff in the middle – writing that may or may not be considered creative, and that makes its membership in the club completely subjective. So, what is creative writing?
Creative Writing is Subjective
If a historical textbook is not creative writing, then wouldn't that exclude other nonfiction works like memoirs and biographies from the creative writing category?
Not necessarily.
The line that separates creative writing from other types of writing is not drawn between fiction and nonfiction. Creative nonfiction is a broad genre and includes memoirs and biographies, personal essays, travel and food writing, and literary journalism.
While nonfiction indicates that the writing is rooted in fact, it can be quite creative (unlike technical or medical writing) because it is written with emphasis on language and the craft of writing.
Creative Writing and You
Ultimately we each get to decide what is art and what is creative writing. Most of us will know creative writing when we experience it, either as a writer or as a reader, even though we rarely take the time to examine why we consider one type of writing creative over another.
A few questions to consider:
- Do you differentiate between creative writing and other types of writing? Do you even think about it?
- Have you ever thought about the difference between literary writing and other types of creative writing?
- Do you feel that copywriting (ads, commercials, etc.) can be classified as creative writing or art even though its purpose is strictly commercial?
In the big scheme of things, it may not be that important to go around labeling what is and isn't creative writing, but it's certainly worthy of a few brief moments of consideration.
In any case, keep writing (and stay creative)!

The Benefits of Journaling
Practice makes perfect, right?
That's exactly why keeping a journal is essential for writers. The countless benefits of journaling include getting regular writing practice, establishing a space where you can explore your creative ideas, and fostering a daily writing habit.
Do all writers keep journals? Of course not. But most of us have kept journals at some point, and for most of us, journal writing has been instrumental in our development as writers.
Morning Pages
Probably the most famous application of journal writing comes from Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way. In it, she encourages people who are trying to connect with creativity to write every single morning. "Three pages of whatever comes to your mind — that's all there is to it."
Writing morning pages is like boot camp for your muse. By writing every day at the same time, you train her to show up when you say it's time to work. Cameron's methodology also involves turning off the inner censor, that little voice that berates every sentence.
The key is to simply let the words flow.
Think about it — if you write three pages a day, in seven days, you'll have twenty-one pages. In a month, you'll have about ninety pages, and in one year, you'll have well over a thousand pages. That's a lot of creative material to pull ideas from. And those are just a few of the benefits of journaling.
Get on the Writer's Express
If you're new to writing or want to explore writing as a career or hobby, then journal writing is your ticket onto the expressway to becoming a writer. You can use your journal to draft stories, sketch characters, jot down poems, or record the events of your daily life. Maybe after one year and over a thousand pages, you'll be able to do some editing and publish your memoir.
Journaling is also great for commercial writers (technical writers, copywriters, etc.), who spend all day writing and editing copy for clients. This type of writing is a lot different from writing stories or poems; keeping a journal can help to get your head out of business and into more creative forms of writing. The creativity you cultivate will then seep into your professional writing, and it will become more vivid and engaging.
Sticking to a Schedule
Even if you don't stick to a rigorous schedule, it's important to write somewhat regularly to get the most out of the benefits of journaling. This helps keep ideas and language flowing and helps you build the journal writing habit. You may only be able to journal on weekends or on certain days of the week. Sticking to a schedule (preferably daily) is the best way, but it's not always realistic.
The most important thing is that you commit to keeping a journal and then keep your journal with you or nearby at all times. You can also carry smaller notebooks or scraps of paper and either glue or tape them into your journal later.
You'll Need a Journal
I've been writing a journal on and off for more years than I care to admit that I have under my belt. Throughout all those years, I've tried every type of journal under the sun, and finally, I found my favorite for journal writing.
Technically, the Watson-Guptill Sketchbook is just that, a sketchbook. The pages are blank instead of lined, so you can doodle and write sideways, and I love adding color with Crayola Markers, too!
Some writers can journal using anything — composition books, legal pads, napkins. I can do that too, but I don't feel the same connection to it as when I have my own sacred space especially for journal writing.
Journal Writing
Recently, I've got it into my head that I'll start journaling on the computer. But it's just not the same as having that pen and paper in my hand. It's almost like I'm closer to my creativity or my subconscious when I'm using a pen. I'm not sure if that's true or even possible, but it sure feels that way, making the tactile experience of working with pen and paper yet another benefit of journaling.
Have you ever kept a journal? Do you keep one now? Let's talk about how journal writing has impacted our writing or even our lives. What type of notebook or paper do you use for your journal, or do you use a computer? Is your blog your journal? What benefits of journaling have you experienced?
Maya Angelou: Write with Passion
"The idea is to write it so that people hear it and it slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart." – Maya Angelou
We've all read books, articles, and poems that we completely forgot about once we were done. But some written works linger. They haunt us or stimulate our thoughts. They provoke our emotions.
That kind of writing is special.
When you create an emotional connection between your writing and your readers, there's a lasting impression. That's what happens when you write with passion.
The first book that had that kind of impact on me was Charlotte's Web by E.B. White, and the first poem that evoked that kind of response in me was "Phenomenal Woman" by Maya Angelou.
Those two works, along with dozens of others, became threads in the tapestry of my world. That's the power of writing that slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart, as Maya Angelou described. This kind of writing affects people, influences them, and shapes their lives because it's imbued with passion.
Maybe your readers will enjoy your work but get back to their lives as soon as they've closed the cover on your story. Or maybe you'll make a difference. Maybe you'll change lives and make some small (or great) change in the world. There's no right or wrong way, but when you write with passion, you certainly increases the chance that your work will stick with people.

What's Your Creative Writing Style? Tips for Developing Your Voice
Each writer has a distinct style. We repeat certain words, phrases, and expressions; there are patterns in how we arrange words in sentences and paragraphs, and our writing often carries a recognizable tone.
The term for an author's distinct writing style is voice.
Wikipedia defines a writer's voice as "a combination of their common usage of syntax, diction, punctuation, character development, dialogue, etc., within a given body of text (or across several works)."
In college literature courses, we would be given a long list of quotes, and we had to identify the author of each one. The professors didn't expect us to memorize the entire literary canon; we were to have studied these authors' works enough to be able to identify the quotes by each author's voice.
Imagine someone reading a snippet of text and knowing that you wrote it! That's style. Read More
Unusual Creative Writing Activities That Will Motivate and Inspire You
Writing activities usually involve sitting in a chair and hammering away at a keyboard. Some of us still use good, old-fashioned pens and paper. We brainstorm, outline, draft, and polish.
It can get repetitive and mundane.
Why not spice up our writing lives with some unusual writing activities that promote creativity while motivating and inspiring fresh ideas?
Isn't it Ordinary?
It's all rather ordinary and limiting — always sitting in the same position and using the same tools — day in and day out? Creativity gets stale with too much routine. Sure, you can take breaks. There are lots of writing tips that recommend getting out for some exercise and socializing, and there are plenty of creativity tips that help you think in new ways.
What about writing activities that get you moving and positioning your body in new ways? Or touching different textures and being in an environment that's nothing like your usual surroundings?
Get off that chair, step away from your desk, and try standing or crouching. Put yourself in a different environment — leave the office and go outside. Lie on your stomach in the grass and scratch words, carve them, paint them, and let the stimuli of your surroundings and the tools in your hand gently guide your mind, your muse, and your creativity in a new direction.
Unusual Writing Activities
These writing activities are definitely unusual; you'll use your body, your surroundings, and the tools you're writing with to motivate and inspire new writing ideas.
- 1. Supersize it
- Get some extra-large, over-sized paper and sprawl out somewhere — like in the grass or on the floor. Instead of typing or writing in the limited space of your computer monitor or notebook, use pens and pencils, and write until you fill up the entire sheet. Use big, enormous letters or itty bitty ones. Either way, it's going to feel a lot different from what you're used to.
- 2. Colored Markers
- A pack of colored markers doesn't cost much, and once you've got them, you can use them to write on that over-sized paper, and that makes the previous activity a lot more fun. Putting down your words in color might spark fresh writing ideas, so use your markers to write in your notebook or journal, on sticky notes, and even on scratch paper when you're jotting down concepts.
- 3. Speaking of Sticky Notes…
- Try writing different parts of a story or poem on sticky notes. Limit yourself to a few words (for poetry) or just a line or two (for prose). On each sticky note, write a line of dialogue or some basic action (she walked toward the door). You'll be writing in a tiny space, and that will make you choose your words more carefully. When you're done, you can have fun patching all the sticky notes together to complete your piece.
- 4. Chalk it Up
- Actually, chalk it down. Most department and toy stores sell big buckets of large, thick sidewalk chalk, which is perfect for marking up sidewalks and driveways. This is a fun exercise to do with the kids, by the way. Chalk a poem or a piece of flash fiction. If you want to save it, take a photo before washing it all away.
- 5. Stand and Deliver
- There are lots of ways you can write while standing. You can stand at a counter, for example, and write in your notebook, but that's not very unusual. In addition to standing, try writing on a flat, vertical surface. Tape paper to a wall, door, or window and then let your words flow. You can also use an easel or a whiteboard for this one.
- 6. Lie in the Grass
- The trick is to lie directly on the grass. Do not use a blanket or a towel — make contact with the green — physically connect with a texture you're not used to. If the grass is too damp or dirty for you, then try this on sand or pavement (I bet the pavement's WAY dirtier than the grass). The important thing is to be outdoors, lying down, and writing.
- 7. Paint Your Words
- You don't need fancy paints or paintbrushes — a cheap set of watercolors from the school supply aisle will do. You might want to use that over-sized paper for this one. Paint your story or poem instead of writing it, and if the mood strikes (and you're feeling artistic), get some images in there too — or just let the colors run and see what happens to your words.
- 8. Get Old School
- Use a fountain pen and an inkwell (yes, they still make this stuff) and find out what it was like to be a writer hundreds of years ago. Remember, some of the greatest writers in history did it this way — dipping their nibs into the ink: Shakespeare, Jane Austen, and Emily Dickinson. If they could do it, you can too!
- 9. Scratching on Crayon
- This an old trick that school-aged kids love: Use pastel crayons to color over an entire sheet of paper. You can use a solid color, make rainbows, big bubbles, or stripes. Whatever. It doesn't matter. When you're done, go over the whole thing with the black crayon until it's solid black. Now you can use your fingernail (or a sharp object, like a paperclip or the edge of a penny) to write by scratching off the black layer, and voila! Your writing reveals a rainbow of color beneath.
- 10. Ambidexterity
- Are you right-handed? Write with your left hand. Left-handed? Use your right. It feels awkward at first, but if you concentrate, you should be able to scrawl something legible using your opposite hand (yes, I know this because I have actually done some of these crazy things. What? You think I make this stuff up?).
- 11. Stay at Your Computer
- Okay, so you want to switch things up, but you just can't pry yourself away from your beloved computer. You can still get creative. Try writing in white text on a black background. Or try lime green on a dark purple background. Mix up your colors, make them bold or put them in italics, and get busy writing.
- 12. And if You Want to Get Really Fancy…
- Still don't want to leave your computer? Go find some unusual fonts and write with those. Try script fonts or big, bold fonts in different sizes.
- 13. Eat Your Words
- Remember Alpha-Bits cereal? What about Alphabet Soup? You can use food to write! I confess, I haven't tried this one, and it could get messy. It might also be difficult — if you keep eating your letters, you won't have anything to write with.
- 14. Wear Your Words
- If you can eat your words, you might as well wear them. All you need is a Sharpie (better yet, try some colored Sharpies) and a cheap, white tee shirt. Stretch the fabric around something firm, and start writing. Hey, if you ever become a world-famous novelist, that tee shirt is going to be worth big bucks!
- 15. Make a Mural
- You can buy rolls of paper at art supply stores and even at home improvement stores. Roll it out and attach it to the wall. Masking tape works well for this, and a good place for this activity is on a garage door. Now you're really mixing things up; you're standing, writing on over-sized paper, and as an added bonus, you can get out your colored markers or paints and really liven things up.
- 16. Revisit Your Childhood
- Earlier I mentioned writing with paints and paintbrushes. Try doing it with finger paints (I bet you're going to need that over-sized paper for this one). You'll probably get dirty, so dress accordingly. This is another great one to do with kids. Leave yourself some time to take a shower afterward.
- 17. Carvings
- You'd be surprised at all the things you can carve — pieces of firewood, a candle, your kitchen table. I'm kidding. Don't wreck your kitchen table. But carving words slows down the writing process, which means you'll put more thought into what you're saying and you'll take greater care with your grammar. Use a knife, an awl, or some other sharp instrument to whittle your tale.
- 18. Shoe Boxes
- I recently helped a dear friend clean out her closet. She had some old stuff in there, like a cardboard shoe box in which we'd written a story some twelve years ago. We had used nothing more than a cardboard box and a ball point pen (we should have used a Sharpie), and here it was, over a decade later, hidden behind a pair of old sneakers. This one's my favorite, and that's why I saved it for last.
I'm sure there's some scientific reasoning that explains why these writing activities turn up the heat on creativity. I'm no scientist, but I do know when my own creativity is in high gear. I have actually tried several of these unusual and quirky writing activities, and I clearly recall that they got me thinking in different ways. I almost always came up with things to write about that otherwise never would have occurred to me.
So try a few of these out for yourself. Give yourself about 20-30 minutes so you have enough time to settle into the writing activity, and then see what happens.
Do you have any unusual writing activities to add to this list? If you think of any other strange ways to write, leave your ideas in the comments.

The Power of Narrative Writing
Wikipedia defines narrative as "any report of connected events, actual or imaginary, presented in a sequence of written or spoken words, or still or moving images."
Put simply, narrative is story — a sequence of events with a beginning, a middle, and an ending. Narrative can be true or fictional. It can be relayed in writing, through photographs, in film, and even in song.
Narrative comprises a huge segment of creative writing, so let's take a look at narrative in action and examine some key traits of narrative writing.
What is Narrative?
The word narrative is often thrown around by the media, politicians, and commercial enterprises, especially advertisers. These folks understand the power of narrative, which can be used to spread a message, cultivate emotional connections, and control a story.
Consider Malala Yousafzai, a young Pakistani girl who was shot in the head at age fifteen because she wanted to go to school. Malala survived and went on to become a world renowned advocate for girls' education, focusing on regions of the world where girls are deprived of education. Malala's story, or narrative, was instrumental to her ability to step upon the world stage and broadcast her message to the masses, and in 2014 she won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Celebrities excel at using narrative to build their brands and cultivate emotional connections with their fans. Watch any music competition show on television and you'll see the contestants sharing their life stories, often emphasizing the difficulties or conflicts they've experienced. It's been said before: conflict is story. When audiences see these contestants' struggles, they want to root for them, and a fandom begins to blossom. Throughout a celebrity's career, the narrative continues, as we watch their highs and lows: they go through relationships, struggle with drugs, get married, have kids, and get divorced. It's a long, ongoing narrative, and it keeps the fan base tuned in and buying books, movies, music, and magazines.
Politicians also use narrative to forge an emotional connection, but they are often more invested in controlling the story than sharing it. As they reveal their life stories to us, they pick and choose which parts to include, forging a selective narrative that emphasizes their strengths while downplaying their weaknesses.
And we can watch any commercial on television to see narrative being used to sell products and services. We see exhausted but devoted moms and dads looking for better ways to keep their kids healthy and the house clean. There are hipsters searching for the latest and greatest gadget, which will surely make their life funner and easier. Commercials are overrun with people who want to be beautiful and attract a mate. These are narratives that a target demographic can relate to, which is why commercials sell millions of products ranging from food and cleaning supplies to computers and makeup.
Why We Love Narrative
Whether we're buried in books or ogling at a screen, we love to immerse ourselves in narratives.
Why is that?
An article on Wired titled "The Art of Immersion: Why Do We Tell Stories?" delves into the science behind why we love stories so much:
Anthropologists tell us that storytelling is central to human existence. That it's common to every known culture. That it involves a symbiotic exchange between teller and listener — an exchange we learn to negotiate in infancy.
Just as the brain detects patterns in the visual forms of nature — a face, a figure, a flower — and in sound, so too it detects patterns in information. Stories are recognizable patterns, and in those patterns we find meaning. We use stories to make sense of our world and to share that understanding with others. They are the signal within the noise.
So how do we find meaning in stories? How do we use stories to make sense of our world? Let's look to fiction and personal narratives for the answers:
Nonfiction (personal) Narratives: Storytelling is used in memoirs and documentaries to convey true stories. When we hear about a devastating natural disaster on the other side of the world, it's difficult for many people to put it in context. But when we hear firsthand accounts of survivors who describe what it was like to witness and experience the disaster — when we hear their narratives — we can better relate to the events that transpired. We begin to understand what it was like to be there, and our empathy engages.
Fictional Narratives: Fiction, however, is probably the most beloved form of narrative writing and story consumption. Books, movies, television shows, and even video games give us made-up stories. Whether a historical novel that carries us into the past so we can gain insight on what it might have been like to live in a world without technology or a science-fiction film that takes us far into the future where technology has surpassed our wildest imaginations, fictional narratives, like true narratives, give us access to experiences that we'll never have and allow us to gain better understanding of the world we live in, and in some cases, the world we might someday live in.
Narrative Writing
Whether we write prose or scripts, narrative writing is a useful tool for sharing our thoughts, experiences, and ideas with others. We can use narrative to pose questions, like What will happen when artificial intelligence becomes smarter than humans? What was it like to be aboard the Titanic? What is it like to climb Mount Everest?
There are several key elements that we find in successful narrative writing:
- Characters: They can be made-up characters or real people. Audiences develop relationships with characters; it is through this bond that we connect with stories.
- Conflict: All the best narratives are built around a core conflict or story question. We stay tuned in because we want see how the conflict gets resolved. We want to find out the answer to the questions that the story poses.
- Plot: Plot is action and dialogue, the rising and falling of tension, the arc of a story. Plot is what happens. We engage intellectually with a narrative's plot.
- Setting: The backdrop of a narrative sets the stage and helps the audience enter a story world. Setting is crucial, even if it's minimal.
- Point of view: Who's telling the story? Who's it about? Who does the camera follow? The narrative point-of-view is the point of connection between a story and its audience.
As you pursue narrative writing, ask whether you're including these essential elements and whether they're woven into the narrative seamlessly.
Are you a storyteller? How do you use narrative writing? Do you aim to educate and inform, share your thoughts and ideas, or entertain audiences? Share your thoughts by leaving a comment, and keep writing narrative!
14 Types of Creative Writing
When we talk about creative writing, we tend to focus on fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry. But there are many other types of creative writing that we can explore.
No matter what you write, it's good practice to occasionally dip your pen into other waters. It keeps your skills sharp and your writing fresh. Plus it's nice to take a break from writing the same thing all the time.
Let's look at fourteen types of creative writing. As you read through the list, identify the types of writing you've experimented with and the types you'd still like to try.
Types of Creative Writing
- Journals: Journals are often confused for diaries. Technically, a diary is a type of journal, but a journal is any written log. You could keep a gratitude journal, a memory journal, a dream journal, or a goals journal.
- Diaries: A diary is a specific kind of journal where you write down the events of each day, resulting in a chronicle of your life.
- Essays. Not all essays are creative, but plenty of essays flow from creative thinking. Some examples include personal essays, descriptive essays, and persuasive essays.
- Storytelling: One of the most popular types of creative writing is storytelling. Storytelling lends itself to both fiction and nonfiction. Popular forms include flash fiction, short stories, novellas, and full-length novels. But stories can also be firsthand or secondhand accounts of real people and events.
- Poetry: Another popular but under-appreciated type of writing is poetry, which is easily the most artistic, creative form of writing. You can write form poetry, free-form poetry, and prose poetry. Or try writing a story in rhyme (perfect for kids).
- Memoir: Memoirs are personal accounts (or stories) with narrow themes and specific topics. They are usually the length of novels or novellas; shorter works of this kind would be considered essays. Memoir topics focus on specific experiences rather than providing a broad life story (which would be a biography). For example, one might write a travel or food memoir, which is an account of one's personal experiences through the lens of travel or food (or both).
- Vignettes: A vignette is defined as "a brief evocative description, account, or episode." Vignettes can be poems, stories, descriptions, personal accounts…anything goes really. The key is that a vignette is extremely short — just a quick snippet.
- Letters: Because the ability to communicate effectively is increasingly valuable, letter writing is a useful skill. There is a long tradition of publishing letters, so take extra care with those emails you're shooting off to friends, family, and business associates. In fact, one way to get published if you don't have a lot of clips and credits is to write letters to the editor of a news publication.
- Scripts: Hit the screen or the stage by writing screenplays (for film), scripts (for plays), or teleplays (for TV). You can even write scripts for video games! As a bonus, scripts have the potential to reach a non-reading audience.
- Song lyrics: Close cousin of poetry, song lyrics are a fun and creative way to merge the craft of writing with the art of music. Writing lyrics is an excellent path for writers who can play an instrument or who want to collaborate with musicians.
- Speeches: Whether persuasive, inspirational, or informative, speech writing is a discipline that can lead to prosperous and interesting career opportunities in almost any field ranging from science to politics to education.
- Journalism: Some forms of journalism are more creative than others. Traditionally, journalism was a straightforward, objective form of reporting on facts, people, and events. Today, journalists often infuse their writing with opinion and storytelling to make their pieces more compelling. For good or bad, this new practice opens journalism to more creative approaches.
- Blogging: A blog is nothing more than a publishing platform — a piece of technology that displays content on the web or an electronic device. A blog can be just about anything from a diary to a personal platform to an educational tool. In terms of creative writing, blogs are wide open because you can use them to publish any (or all) types of creative writing.
- Free writing: Open a notebook or a document and just start writing. Let strange words and images find their way to the page. Anything goes! It's the pinnacle of creative writing.
Which of these types of creative writing have you tried? Are there any forms of writing on this list that you'd like to experiment with? Can you think of any types of creative writing to add to this list? Share your thoughts by leaving a comment, and keep writing.

Kylie Layne Williams
James Williams and Ashley Lehman of Stamping Ground, Ky., announce the birth of their daughter, Kylie Layne Williams.
She was born on May 17 at Georgetown Community Hospital, and weighed 7 lbs., 13.5 oz.
Maternal grandparents are Sheila Hope and Luke Lilley of Berry, Ky., and Daniel and Bobbie Lehman of Lady Lake, Fla.
Paternal grandparents are Lisa Williams of Winchester, Ky. and the late James H. Williams.
In my lifetime, I suppose the most significant political occurrence would have to be the Watergate Scandal that led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.
Washington Post reporters Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward pieced together a seemingly inconsequential burglary of the Democratic National Party headquarters at the Watergate Office building and eventually tied that to Nixon's White House staff, leading to his resignation.
Although I don't think it's terminal, it is chronic: I have a chronic case of CRS -- Can't Remember Stuff.
That's the diagnosis one of my co-workers gave me the other day. He may or may not have been joking.
I tell people all the time to please, please, please remind me of stuff. It's the CRS, folks. I just can't remember.
At least I'm not alone. The ancient Israelites had it too. They were always forgetting stuff, mostly the stuff God had done for them, even rescuing them from years of slavery in Egypt.
Lee McClellan,
Kentucky Afield associate editor
Fishing for many species slows in the daytime hours during the heat of summer, but smallmouth bass who inhabit Kentucky streams bite willingly even on the hottest days.
Kentuckians who enjoy canoeing or kayaking are lucky to live in a state with bountiful amounts of cool, flowing water that hold smallmouth bass. It is hard to beat a summer day spent paddling a tree canopied Kentucky stream, navigating stream drops and catching smallmouth after smallmouth.
According to directives from The Garden Club of Kentucky, Millersburg Garden Club established a Monarch Butterfly Waystation at the Millersburg Cemetery in 2014. The garden is thriving and many Monarchs and other pollinators have been spotted there. The Waystation was created with the hope that it might help the beautiful Monarch Butterflies survive their long, arduous trip to New Mexico and the southernmost coasts of the United States.

On June 30, HMH General Surgeon Karl Schulstad, M.D., will retire after 22 years of practicing medicine in Cynthiana.

Indy art museum gets monumental Lichtenstein work
INDIANAPOLIS - The Indianapolis Museum of Art says it will unveil for the first time ever in August a monumental sculpture by pop artist Roy Lichtenstein
It announced Monday the piece called Five Brushstrokes will be installed on the mall in front of the museum's main building.
Five Brushstrokes was commissioned in the early 1980s but has never been assembled. It consists of five separate elements ranging between 19 and 40 feet tall with a striking collection of forms and colors. The museum says the sculpture is considered Lichtenstein's most ambitious work in his Brushstroke series.
Museum Director and CEO Charles Venable said it has been working with the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation in New York for over a year to bring the work to Indianapolis.
Lichtenstein died in 1997.

Outstanding 4.6 /5 from 90 reviews
A friendly welcome from a warm and congenial staff. The owners are delightful and went out of their way to recommend local sites and stores. The restaurant was fabulous, a superb menu gourmande, and a reasonably priced wine list. The village is a wonderful entry point into the Parc Regionale de Vulcans d'Auvergne and the hotel was a comfortable respite aftera day spent driving, walking, & climbing through this wonderful natural setting.
Lovely modern hotel in a quiet area of Rocamandour Fr. Our room was on the first floor and it was the largest we have had in Europe. The owner/ receptionist worked very hard for 1 hour to help my husband to deal with a problem with Hertz regarding our car.The rooms had good air, blackout drapes, a private patio and lovely pool area. The place was truly immaculate by US standards...no smell of smoke etc.You can park your car right by the front door .All in all a very good stay! Would recommend highly.
Walking distance to the city of Rocamodour, excellent view point of the whole city from top. Park like setting of hotel, very relaxed. Some nice restaurants near by.
Walking distance to Rocamadour, excellent view/ photo location for the city. Hotel located in a park like setting, very soothing. Lots parking on site, good clean room, very nice breakfast. A bit of drive to visit Sarlat area, but on beautiful country roads. There are some excellent restaurants nearby. Bathroom amenities can use some improvement. We have the solid soap on the first day, they took it after cleaning, did not refill another one for the next 2 days. Overall excellent stay!
Excellent hotel, large rooms, conveniently located to attractions, and great service. Breakfast was very good.

Money week kicks off
Relevant offers
Reserve Bank Governor Alan Bollard is publicly backing a campaign for wider teaching of financial literacy in schools, saying it would help younger generations prepare for future recessions.
In a statement marking the start of New Zealand's first Money Week, Bollard said financial literacy was an important life skill: "Investing in financial education in schools will ...mean younger generations have an understanding of the global financial context which is especially important during a recession".
Retirement Commissioner Diana Crossan has used Money Week to repeat calls for New Zealand to follow Australia by putting more money into getting financial literacy into classrooms.
Australia last year announced $10 million in funding over five years.
"If New Zealand doesn't follow suit and invest money and resources into financial literacy programmes it is our children who will suffer,'' she said.
Better teaching would lead to higher national savings and lower debt in the future, said Crossan.
She said a new resource being launched by the Ministry of Education this week would not be enough because teachers needed skills to use the resources that were already available.
''We're not asking teachers to load the curriculum, we're saying you can use financial education to teach maths and social studies.''
Money Week is the inaugural financial awareness week being run by the Commission for Financial Literacy and Retirement Income.
Australia also kicks off its first money week today, leading Crossan to joke that they will probably say they launched theirs first.
''This is going to be like Pavlova,'' she says.
Budgeting services, schools, companies and Government departments are running free events around the country and close to one hundred financial advisers have agreed to offer pro bono advice over the phone (0800 404 422).
Crossan said the response had been amazing but she had thought large institutions might get more involved.
''They might not have realised how important it is.''
Free events range from a Craigs Investment Partners session on investment basics to a debate on Waiheke Island featuring actor Michael Hurst and Green MP Denise Roche on Ayn Rand's statement that ''Money is the barometer of a society's virtue''.
Of the major banks, only Kiwibank was listed as a participant on the Money Week website as of last Friday. BNZ is launching a short story competition with the Commission.
Funding has been an ongoing issue for voluntary budgeting services but Crossan said the Commission was not ''thumping the desk'' as much as it might be because even ''fairly fundamental'' services were being squeezed.
''Refugees services, relationships services, all kinds of organisations are having their funding cut. So while we always want more money and we think budget advice is really important at this time, we also know the Government is cutting funding everywhere.''
If Crossan had access to more money it would go towards financial literacy in schools, she said.
''It sounds terrible not to give it to budget advice when you know individuals are in strife but in the long term I would be putting more money into teacher development for financial education.''
''New Zealand children and young adults shouldn't be coming out of education without understanding the world they live in.''

Paris Hilton opens up about Cy Waits split
Paris Hilton is adamant her romance with long-term boyfriend Cy Waits didn't end badly, insisting the relationship just "ran its course."
Rumors of a break-up have been rife in recent weeks and the hotel heiress' representative finally confirmed the separation on Tuesday.
Hilton opened up about the split in an interview with TV host George Lopez, revealing the former couple plans to stay friends.
She tells Lopez Tonight, "We're not together anymore. I love him and we remain really good friends. … I feel like the relationship ran its course and we'll see what happens."
The socialite is also looking forward to the summer as a single woman, adding to Us Weekly, "I've never been single in my life. I've always had a boyfriend. I've always been scared to be alone. … I've never really got to know myself. … I'm excited to get to know myself and spend time with my family and my sister and my girls (friends)."
Cy Waits' courthouse attacker sentenced to jail
The man who attacked Paris Hilton's boyfriend Cy Waits outside a Los Angeles courthouse on Wednesday has been sentenced to serve time behind bars.
James Rainford accosted the entrepreneur as he escorted Hilton to a court hearing in Van Nuys, California, and was physically dragged away by security men.
On Thursday, Rainford appeared in court to plead no contest to misdemeanor battery and was sentenced to 227 days behind bars. He was also ordered to stay away from Hilton and Waits after his release and given three years of informal probation.
Last October, Rainford was arrested outside the heiress' Hollywood Hills home after trespassing on her property and then fighting with her security staff.
Hilton was in court this week to testify against Nathan Parada, the man who allegedly tried to break into her home earlier this year.

California 1st in private equity deals
In 2011, 214 California companies received $15.7 billion in funding from private equity firms, says the Private Equity Growth Capital Council. That's first in the number of investments and third in money received behind Texas and New York.
[caption id="attachment_79188" align="aligncenter" width="394" caption="Source: PEGCC"][/caption]
Private equity dwarfs venture capital as a source of funding for privately owned businesses, accounting for $144 billion in equity investments in U.S. companies in 2011, the PEGCC says, compared to $29 billion in venture capital, according to the PricewaterhouseCoopers MoneyTree report.

Louisiana Activist Waxes Nostalgic For Days When Homosexuality Was Considered A Disorder
Gene Mills of the Louisiana Family Forum, who is campaigning against a non-discrimination ordinance in the city of Baton Rouge, said on Friday that the ordinance could potentially make pedophilia a legally protected sexual orientation.
Speaking on the Family Research Council radio show "Washington Watch," Mills also claimed that that heterosexuality is the only sexual orientation, "and other behaviors are considered disordered. Because of the sexual, political agenda of many of these activists, they've been successful at redefining those disorders and classifying them as orientations."
"Washington Watch" host Craig James also dismissed the ordinance because "less than three percent, I believe the exact number is 2.3 percent of the people in this country identify themselves with the LGBT community, yet it is a far greater feeling that they are out there in greater force."
