The best of good writing will entice us into subjects we have declared of no interest to us. Among others, readers patronize those that inform and entertain about their career or family. We are all writers from an early age trying to pass on information, making love letters and trying to communicate how we feel.

Creative literature is feeling as though lightning had struck and toads would turn into diamonds. It is trying to create or recreate samples of new texts and history. It writes like automatic writing, laments like a widow, or evokes a feeling of love. And no matter what, time will tuck these scripts in the soil of every new generation.

How to write creative literature is not taught. It is practiced. It is bleeding your brains and cutting your heart out. It is a way how a writer lives and struggles to find an answer of a quest she ought to share with the world. It is finding zeal in God's big and small creation. It is Ecclesiastes delight in time for everything, David's prose and prayers in the Psalms, and Desiderata.

For practice check this.

Free associate words about a topic. It does not have to make sense, but just create a psychic trail. No two people would answer the same sequence. You may choose to write or list possible connections between words and begin to write a story, an essay or a poem.

What did you do this long weekend of holy week?

Here is a sequence of ten words as memories, agony, love, internet, rosary, mythic, Gethsemane, dispatch evolution, bear, and Jesus Christ.

Here is a sample creative nonfiction.

The world is round, a cycle. Yesterdays come back in your head. Agonies and grieving come and go. We are all sent by God for a reason to bear and thrive. Gethsemane is not mythic. It is a dispatch of evolution of forbearance and light. After everything we've been through, one in Christ we fulfill vows. We recreate every new day while building the future. Holy Thursday is taking part in God's mandate of loving one another.

Also, you can get new words for the day or use a computer dictionary. Get updated with what is popular or purposely misspell words. Incorporate these words and use them in a poem. How about the baggage that you carry like your wounds from childhood or betrayals from ex-lovers? And don't forget your dreams.

Happy writing!
