Some resources to inspire and educate students (and anyone else) looking for some help with Creative Writing.
For the second time in two weeks, my mid-week post is inspired by the appreciation and enjoyment of artistic creation. I just finished reading the latest novel from one of my favorite authors – The Lacuna, by Barbara Kingsolver. How do incredible writers like these consistently develop these wonderful, epic tales featuring rich, complex characters?
Following are a handful of web based resources that offer creative writing tips and techniques. I vetted a couple dozen sites and selected those that appeared most useful, and not overly cluttered with ads or poor design.
- Creative Writing Articles from FreelanceWriting.com
- Online Creative Writing Courses Offered Free by Top Universities and Educational Websites
- Creative-Writing-Help.com
- “Fiction Writing” from About.com
- “Creative Writing 101″ from Suite101.com
- Free Creative Writing Course from “The Crafty Writer”
- Creative writing web activities for kids, teachers, and parents
