Creative Writing - Creative Writing Questions

Question #1:

The most interesting man in the world.?

People hang on his every word, even the prepositions. He could disarm you with his looks... or his hands... either way. He can speak French... in Russian. He is 'The Most Interesting Man in the World'."

"I don't always drink beer but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis. Stay thirsty my friends"

Your assignment is to write a description of the LEAST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD.
I want some real creative clever response. Ten point plus stars for the best answer.

Question #2:

Writing on a cake...?

We are having a house warming and need something creative on the cake. I was thinking Finally and my husband wants Home sweet home. I want something creative..outside the box any suggestions?

Question #3:

Let's try a little creative writing. What do you think?

Ok, so... I'll take the next few minutes to write whatever comes to mind. Quick poetry, but let's see how it works. Leave me some comments/suggestions? Brainstorming here sort of. Feedback is appreciated!

Scattered memories laid out across my floor
Finding pictures of you; wanting to know more
Steely blue; you've got familiar eyes
Steely blue and wide, just like mine
I hear someone open up the door
I pack you up off of my floor
Questions left unanswered for lack of being asked
Can't risk them finding out; time to put on that mask
Memories unknown are the best ones that I have
Imagining your face, your voice, your laugh
Dead to all around, but alive in my soul
I'll leave the light on; follow that glow
Please come home to find me here
This picture is faded, so unclear

9 minutes later, this is what you get... it's about my half brother whom I have never really met and my parents refuse to acknowledge he really even exists. Going through old photographs I have found the boy's old photos my parents thought they had hidden well. Suggestions are appreciated. Let me know if you think this is a good concept and if what I wrote sounds ok. thanks!

Question #4:

What do you think of this passage? 10 pts.?

I wrote this last night when I was feeling pretty creative. I'm not giving you the entire scene, but I'll give you the part where Micah, the protagonist, is recounting his first high school party, where he was taken by his best friend Declan.

Declan had dragged me along to a few high school parties; I don’t remember exactly how many. I do remember that I was nervous as hell when I went to all of them, though. Declan was an extrovert and he thrived in social situations like that, where he could make himself the center of attention, but I’d rather sit on my couch and spend a few hours reading a good book. That was enough of an adventure for me.
The first real party I went to was unforgettable. And when I say real party, I mean there were no presents, no cake, and no parents to supervise what was going on. What there were plenty of, though, were drugs, alcohol, and promiscuous sex in someone’s parents’ bedroom. It was very tasteful.
I had spent an hour or so observing Declan from a corner where I was sure no one would find me. I was sitting, hiding behind the leaves of a fake plant, watching the chaos as it unfolded. Nearly everyone looked like they were drunk or high or, in some cases, just plain stupid. I figured to get the true party experience from behind a plant, I needed to have the same mindset as everyone else.
I decided against smoking pot; my mother had done it at a very young age and had been kicked out of her house when her parents found out, and I didn’t want the chance of that happening to me. I tried to remain invisible as I made my way to the kitchen. I was new to the whole alcohol thing, so I was lucky to see someone else in the kitchen getting a drink.
He took a shot of some whiskey, made a grimacing face, and set the shot glass back on the counter. He coughed a little. I walked a little closer to him, hoping he wasn’t too plastered to give me some advice. I told him I had never drank before and wanted to know what to try. There were beer cans, bottles of hard lemonade, wine coolers, vodka, tequila—enough alcohol for everyone at the party to have more than a fair share.
“You’ve really never drank before?” He asked. He had the appearance of someone who would usually be stately and well-postured, but the alcohol had worn him down. I pointed to a bucket of full of ice and wine coolers that was a few feet away. I recognized what they were because my mom drank them all the time.
“I think I’ll have a wine cooler. Could you hand me one, please?” He let out heavy, breathless laugh, bent over a little and placed his hand on his stomach to be able to breathe again.
“You want a wine cooler?” He asked.
“Yeah,” I said, “I want to get drunk tonight.”
“Are you gay?” He asked.
“What?” He repeated himself, this time with a little chuckle.
“Are you gay?”
“No,” I told him. “Why?”
“You don’t want to get drunk on wine coolers unless you’re a fruit, man.” He tossed me a can of beer. “Here, drink this.” He left the kitchen, half staggering, and I opened the can of beer.
I looked at it for a few seconds. I don’t have to do this, I thought. No, I decided, I said I was going to get drunk, so I’m going to get drunk. I took one sip of the beer and immediately hated the taste.
Okay. Beer was out. What else could I drink? I grabbed the bottle of whiskey, poured myself a shot, and tried that, hoping it wouldn’t taste like shit.
I was wrong.
The whiskey tasted worse. I put the cap back on and pushed it to the back of the counter. I saw the bottle of vodka and figured it had to be better than the whiskey, at least. It was clear—how much bad flavor can they put in something if it’s clear?
I experimented like that with the different types of alcohol for the next few minutes. All in all, I think I had about eleven shots of various things. By the time I was done tasting and had decided I would drink the hard lemonade to get drunk, I was already drunk.
I spent the next few hours at the party bumping into people and knocking them over. It was a good thing they were drunk, too, since they probably would have kicked my ass otherwise. Declan and I ended up crashing at the house that night. It wasn’t really voluntary, though. I crashed on the stairs on my way up to locate Declan, and he crashed on the stairs on his way down to find me.
When I awoke the next morning, I felt like I had been run over by a bus. It was, without a doubt, the worst I had ever felt. I’d take death any day over a hangover. So I decided then that I would never drink again. What good did it do me? It’s not like it helped me talk to girls or get any action; I passed out on the stairs for Christ’s sake.
I think that first party scarred me, in both good and bad ways. It was good because I learned that drinking is horrible and definitely not fun, but it was bad because it made me too afraid to do anything. All the other parties I went to were just like the first, except without the alcohol. I found a place to be by myself and spent most of

Question #5:

I'm going to LA to take part in Michael Jackson's memorial, what should I write on my sign?

Here's theh picture i'm using, what caption if any should I have?

Question #6:

Is it foreshadowing or creative writing?

It seems far more likely that the Gospel writers borrowed stories from the Old Testament when writing their Gospels than reporting what actually happened. I hear it explained as double prophecy or foreshadowing of Jesus but could it not be the other way around where the Gospel writers created Jesus life from what they already knew from the Old Testament. If it were done that way it sure would look like foreshadowing. So what do you think foreshadowing or creative writing?

Question #7:

What should I write on my boyfriend's birthday cake?

So its his 18th birthday tomorrow and im making him a cake. I love to bake and i haven't decided on a theme for the cake. problem is i wanna write something cute, not the regular "happy 18th birthday". Basically i need something cute and creative that he'll remember. Also the cake is only for us so it can say whatever. Lastly I can shape the cake into anything, so a cute saying as the basis for a themed cake would be great.

Question #8:

Does this comparison in my writing sound dumb?

So yeah...I've been trying to be slightly more creative, and I want to know if August's work being compared to flowers & whatnot is stupid. Lol, be honest. I don't really care.

The words expressed something so deep August himself never knew he felt, words intertwined like flowers to create an beautiful work, a literary bouquet which he would hand to his mother. And she would smile, as she read his accomplishment; she would feel it and take it in with her senses. And she did.

(then there is more description and such)

Yet little did his mother know, little did he know, that the small bouquet he shared would grow into a garden, and that garden would be open for anyone to stroll.

Question #9:

How hard is it to get into the University of Oxford?

Also, do they have good literature classes? Like creative writing, etc.

Question #10:

What do you guys think of this poem?

"Katie"

Hate is a four-letter word.
Fear is a place in your head.
They've left all this empty space
Where no love exists instead.

Life is a place with no hope
Where Katie just can't find her way.
Nobody ever helps her
Chase all that old pain away.

Katie has no place to go.
Katie has no place to hide.
She's running away from her dreams
And what she really feels deep inside.

So she runs and she never looks back.
She lets the tears come as they fall.
Katie wants someone to love,
But she won't get that at all.

So when Katie just never comes back,
They don't realize what they've done.
They've killed this broken young girl
Without even touching a gun.

Creative criticism is always accepted! What can I do to make it better? Is it good? Is it bad? I'm 15, BTW. Is this a good poem for a 15 year old to have written?

Question #11:

What do you think of an up and coming Spiderman Broadway Musical?

Wood, Cummings join Spidey musical cast

Last updated 14:56 29/06/2009

Evan Rachel Wood and Alan C umming have joined the cast of Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark, the upcoming Broadway musical about the famous web-slinger.

Wood will portray Peter Parker's girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson, while C umming takes on the role of Norman Osborn, also known as the villainous Green Goblin.

The musical, directed by Julie Taymor, begins preview performances Feb. 25, 2010, at the Hilton Theatre.

An opening date will be announced later - as well as, who will be the actor to portray Spider-Man.

Spider-Man will feature a score by Bono and The Edge of U2.

Taymor was the creative force behind The Lion King, Disney's long-running musical, now in its second decade on Broadway. She will co-write the "Spider-Man" book with Glen Berger.

Taymor worked with Wood on the film Across the Universe and with C umming on The Tempest and Titus, both screen adaptations of Shakespeare plays.

"Evan is unique: she is a young actress with incredible depth for both serious and comic drama in films and theater, and on top of that, she has an extraordinary lyrical voice," Taymor said. As for C umming, the director added: "He has such range and such charisma as a performer that I feel his Green Goblin will bring many surprises that will move and entertain us."

The story for the musical was inspired by the Marvel comic books hero - who's also inspired three hit movies - and will include the story of his origins as well as new material.

Other members of the show's production team include set designer George Tsypin, who did the sets for The Little Mermaid on Broadway; costume designer Eiko Ishioka; lighting designer Donald Holder of "The Lion King" and sound designer Jonathan Deans who has worked for Cirque du Soleil.

I really desperatly need help with writing a song, Please Help Xx?

Recently i've been asked to be in a few bands, and i am aware that they all write their own songs... so i need to get in the swing of writing my own if i am to join them. :D

Usually i can be creative and just randomly muck about on the guitar etc... and make up little riffs and stuff, but now when i do it, i cant seem to make a good one now... is there any tips i could be given to even start thinking of ideas or anything please.

The theme of the song would be like 80's rock like skid row or even some j-rock stuff ... Something along those lines... one of the bands are very into their japanese stuff (as am i).

Question #17:

Did you ever answer test questions in a funny or stupid way?

When you didn't study, you can be a little creative, right?

Me I drew this little abstract on a corner of the paper and wrote short quotes.
Kanina lang I took test in Economics, and the Q is: "Ano ang kinahalagahan ng teoryang Lai...sser Fairre ...blah blah..sa pinaka paksa ng Ekonomiks?" Then I answered, "Sir, paano po namin malalaman ang kasagutan sa hayag na tanong? EH DI NYO NAMAN PO ITO ITINURO?!! SABIHIN MO MUNA NOW!"
Tsk..pangatwiranan eh, tinamaan pa nya!
Isa pa. Adv Algebra, I was really desperate na, only 10 mins left and I was still stuck on this money problem--Quadratic equation. "Find x."...so what I did was I encircled the letter"x" on the problem and put 'here', then arrow.
Yes scolded (again).

Feel free to share yours...hehe.
***Kamatayan,
you see, in my opinion, I'D RATHER TELL MY TEACHER HONESTLY THAT I DIDN'T KNOW THE ANSWER, KAHIT ANONG GAWIN KO, 'LA KO MAPIGA, KESA NAMAN MAGNAKAW NG KAALAMAN NG IBA, DI KO GAWAIN YON....ONE THING MORE---NONE OF US KNEW THE ANSWER AND THAT'S FOR SURE! NU BA.
***again, yeah you're right. ISTUPID NGA. SINABI KO BANG HINDE? KAYA NGA Q KO EH, STUPID WAY ENG ENG WAY.
Cheating is not stealing------sorry but I do not agree. Whatever kind of cheating it is, still stealing. white lies man, lying pa rin. whatever the cost I can never do that. lalo pa sa tests.
Yes I do understand. Have you read N.Machiavelli's "The Prince"? It was clearly stated there that a good leader must learn how to cheat, moreover his men should be afraid of him. worship him, otherwise, better not be a leader.
Cheating is good, when you do not STEAL the work of others. If it is for the 2 of you's sake. BUT IN MY CASE, NO WAY! ako lang nakinabang kung gayon. I'm not that selfish.
PASENSYA NA, ESTUDYANTE PA "LAMANG". WALA PA KONG NARARATING. Mas mabuti nang ganto, at least di NANDADAYA ng kapwa. KAYA DI UMUUNLAD ANG BANSANG PILIPINAS, DAHIL SA MGA PALAGAY NATING GANYAN.
Anyway, much thank yous to you. You made me realize, HINDI KA IBA, AT DI AKO IBA. bow.
maybe I should join the English Debate Club, what do you think?

Question #20:

Can't seem to get pass JK Rowling's writing style?

Yeah I know I'm going to get some mean answers here. Well here we go when I try to read Harry Potter I just can't seem to get through it without noticing her writing style and not the story. I mean she is very brilliant ad creative it just seems like her writing style doesn't seem to flow and some words sound out of place. How can't I not let that affect me while I read Harry Potter. I'm on the 5th book.
Yeah I know, but I love the story itself.
