Exercises in Creative Writing

Here are some exercises to make you think and get your creative juices flowing. Have fun!!!

Add Suspense to Your Story star
No matter what genre your tale falls in – historical fiction, romance, mystery, westerns, science fiction, fantasy or any of the others – suspense can and needs to be introduced into the story. How can you do this?

Creative Writing Exercises star
February will be the month of creative writing exercises. Each week I will suggest different exercises that will possibly improve your writing skills. I hope you benefit from and enjoy these exercises.

Halloween Writing Prompts star
I thought some writing prompts for the spookiest time of year would be appropriate. Even if one doesn’t celebrate Halloween, one is surrounded by the decorations and the excitement of children who want to trick-or-treat and get as much candy as possible. Have fun with the prompts.
