WHAT IS CREATIVE WRITING?   BY  EGURIASE S. M. OKAKA When you write for stage, television, or film, you operate a craft that goes beyond the ordinary. As a point of fact, it is a craft that transcends itself to become an art.   An art itself comes from genius and powerful inspiration. We probably can learn the craft because it is quite unlike that a real work of art can come from someone who hasn’t first learned the craft. ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF CREATIVE WRITING You need a go od idea but that idea must have a form. This is the plot. The way you organize the events that form your story is largely driven by the structure of the plot. The foundation of all forms of drama is the three-act structure.
