How come some people can write poetry and fiction, while others can’t? Is Creative Writing a talent?
…Like acting, singing, dancing or painting?
It has to be. Most of the writings I read here or on websites like FanFiction.net, FictionPress.com, etc. are AWFUL.
But my favourite books are amazingly written — they bring you to another world, make you cry or laugh… I think it’s admirable to have that gift, and I doubt it’s only practice or will. Talent must be inborn.
