Statement of Intention for Creative writing

This guide is intended to spark ideas for your own writing.

These < and> are called ‘delimiters’; anything in them must be changed to suit YOUR
creative piece.
Consider a title; your creative is expected to stand alone, and a title can help direct
audience’s attention
For my , < Title> creative response I chose to write from the perspective of < Character> at
the point in the play when < time / setting reference>).

I chose to explore this option because I was intrigued by < Character>’s positivity and her
ethical correctness, and knew I would enjoy creating a conversation between her and someone she
dearly loves and is married to, especially since she has such strong feelings towards < Character 2 >
marrying <Character 3>. The piece is written as a <script> and is a conversation between < Ch 1>
and he< Ch 2r >. I have chosen this moment because of its significance in the play as a whole….

<ELABORATE with examples> The employment of now obsolete words such as <1>, <2> and <3>
serves to retain the <richness> of <Shakespeare’s four hundred year old> text.

I also incorporated many quotes from the original text such as <1> and <2>. Although I knew
that this quote <example> was actually spoken by another character <name> I chose to utilise its
perspective in the mouth of <Character 1> because ……

<Shakespeare> additionally explored the dynamics between < men > and < women > in this
<play> I and I wanted to reflect that through the imagery of < metaphor/ simile/ symbol> QUOTE
and ELABORATE.

Finally the significance of the title I have chosen points the audience to ………..

Be direct, and explain the authorial choices that you made.

Make sure that you reference any subtlety in the creative piece that you hope will be
