THE ART OF CREATIVE WRITING

Your muse is alive in the city and in the bush

Bonjour! Wilkommen! Salut! Chiao! Hello!

Welcome to The Art of Creative Writing!

I invite you to fly with us and get the creative juices flowing. Your muse is alive in the country and the city. Join us here and learn how to write vivid prose, poetry and longer works.

Whether you live in a big city or in a beautiful country area, you can benefit from the information and templates here to inspire you and get your muse working for you. I live in Sydney near the city and the beach at Coogee. My background is country and it is this that has benefited my writing from the beginning, stamping it indelibly with the rhythms, sounds, perfumes and cadences of nature where I grew up on the Clarence River far from cities. However, it is cities with their architectural esthetics and sophisticated spaces that have drawn me to their crowded landscapes ever since.

The past lives in all of us, so use what you have and fly with us on this magical journey of creativity. Your muse is alive in you!

COME FLY WITH US AND LEARN HOW TO BRING YOUR WORK TO THE NEXT LEVEL

Use the menus to navigate the site and find what you are looking for, whether it be writing short stories, structuring a novel or finding out about genre, poetry and getting published. There is something of interest for everyone to peruse free of charge. I invite you to utilise the blog for ideas and models to practise, for example reading poetry of some of the greats aloud for inspiration and for cadence. We all borrow from others while learning how to be creative with our written work, so get on board and try it out!

Good luck on your writing journey!

An Invitation

Please leave a comment in the section below any one of the posts that interests you, and, if you would like to have your work published on this site, send me a document in Microsoft Word for potential publishing, after I have looked at it to fit requirements. I’m looking for personal stories that tear us up or teach us all something valuable, of between 500-1500 words to go with professional-looking photos or images (e.g. from Pexel or Pixabay, to be chosen by me or by you as the author). Give it a go and see how your work looks when published professionally. I’d love to see what you are writing!
