Does ‘creative’ writing have to be descriptive?


Does it? I’m trying to write a creative writing piece based on a battle of the bands theme, and the story of a kids dream. But im not sure where i could include a lot of description in it. What do people means by creative? Imaginative, descriptive, or just a lot of use of complex sentence and paragraph structure with extended vocab?

What do you think of my tanza poem for creative writing?


The syllables are 5-7-5-7-7

Running straight ahead
Arms stretched outwards towards the light
Hope keeps me moving
Knowing that I will meet you
Believing I will see you

I’m writing a short story for a creative writing class and I don’t quite know where to take it. suggestions?


It has started as a story about a dentist who is repulsed by people’s simple, minor flaws (like crooked or discolored teeth). I don’t know if I should leave it as a description of a lonely man or put in a conflict, climax, resolution etc. any ideas or things that might help me come up with ideas?
