1. WHAT IS CREATIVE WRITING?

2. WHY DO WE NEED TO WRITE CREATIVELY?
 Writing is the physical manifestation of a spoken language.
 Creative writing is the artistic expression through written word. It is
used to express the writer’s ideas and emotion in an artistic manner.
Unlike other forms of writing, it uses a language that aims to entertain
and captivate the audience. Creative writing’s main purpose is to
entertain and educate the author’s readers.
 Technical writing, on the other hand, is not done to entertain its reader.
It is wholly written to inform someone. Some technical articles are
sometimes written to trigger its reader to making an action beneficial to
the one of the writer.
