Writing courses? I have doubts. In writing matters experiencing, getting to know, working. Creative writing. Why yes?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When in January 2014 I organized first meeting with creative writing, I had no idea that I’d learn so interesting stories. I met just people who wanted to write and this meeting sent them info: yes, you can write<\/strong>. I believe that people can write and this writing is the matter of making the decision ( yes, I’ll write<\/em>) and working hard ( my writing habit<\/em>). And every meeting of creative writing proves these statements.<\/p>\n

For me creative writing is not learning how to write, but experiencing writing<\/strong>, knowing ( yourself, your style) and courage to share with others who also write and who do it really well.<\/p>\n

I am always impressed with pieces of writing which are results of creative exercises ( and some of them are really hard) and I also take part in it, however I have got my own task there. My role there is just to be an animator ( not a teacher), so somebody who initiates to act and who inspires ( look at the mining of the Latin verb animare<\/em>). I believe in formatting an writer ( like in the book On Writing : a memoir of the Craft<\/a> ) – work on yourself and write every day. I know that this is the most difficult. And then? After that, there are books like products that have one goal: to be sold <\/em>( Katarzyna Bonda).<\/p>\n

So what about this creative writing? Here some of my sum up with opinions of participants who first time took part in 6th meeting with creative writing.<\/p>\n
