: Can Creative Writing Be Taught?
I don't believe so. Ironically, I'm enrolled in a Creative Writing course right now, but my prof agrees. You can't teach someone creative writing. You can teach someone how to take their natural talent and learn to write better, but you cannot teach someone to write creatively. Just as you can't teach someone to have an imagination, you cannot teach someone to write creatively. Inversely, though, I believe that everyone has an inherent ability to write creatively. After all, everyone is born with an imagination. It's all just a matter of making use of it.
