With this week’s focus on “narrative”, I am relating to my personal experiences of creative writing as a media example. I have written creative stories since I was young, but I have hardly ever gone through the ‘rules’ of story telling that was discussed in the lecture. I think that the information that I have been provided with this week will be helpful for me, to create fictional stories. It has been a goal of mine since I was a kid, that I want to publish a novel one day. But I have always struggled with dedicating myself to one creative idea, with fear of becoming bored or stuck with the dreaded writer’s block.
However, with the skills that I have gained from this week’s lecture in Narrative, I feel that I have learned the essential and basic skills of story writing.
