LESSON 1: Creative Writing

OBJECTIVES:
By the end of this chapter, the learner should be able to:
1. Define creative writing;
2. Differentiate creative writing from other types of writing; and
3. Discuss creatively the importance of writing to them as a learner and as a writer.

READINGS

Creative Writing- is the very fine art of making things up, in the most attractive, apt and convinving
way possible. It is done in a way that is not academic or technical but still attracts an audience. Both
fictional and non-fictional works fall into this category, including such forms as novels, biographies,
short stories and poems.
- It is a form of artistic expression, draws on the imagination to convey meaning through the
use of imagery, narrative and drama.
- (Witty and LaBrant) it is a composition of any type of writing at any time primarily in the
service of such needs as
 The need for keeping records of significant experience;
 The need for sharing experience with an interested group; and
 The need for free individual expression which contributes to mental and physical
health.

Differences Between Technical and Creative Writing:


Writing can be grouped into five basic types: technical, creative, expressive, expository, and
persuasive.
 Technical Writing conveys specific information about a technical subject to a specific audience for
a specific purpose. (examples are business letters, thesis, research, and technical reports)
 Creative Writing is fiction-poetry, short stories, plays, and novels- and is most different from
technical writing.
 Expressive Writing is a subjective response to a personal experience-journals and diaries—whereas
technical writing might be objective observations of a work-related experience or research.
 Persuasive Writing depends on emotional appeal. Its goal is to change attitudes or motivate to
action.

Difference Between Creative Writing and Technical Writing


Technical Writng Creative Writing
Content factual, straightforward imaginative, metaphoric or
symbolic
Audience Specific general
Purpose inform, instruct, persuade entertain, provoke, captivate
Style formal, standard, academic informal, artistic, figurative
Tone Objective subjective
Vocabulary Specialized general, evocative
Organization sequential, systematic arbitrary, artistic
*Creative writing is a free expression of our thoughts and emotions wherein we use our creativity in
writing or in expressing our ideas.Creative in a sense that we use flowery words instead of the normal
or formal one. It is different from a technical writing because this needs to be done carefully following

technical standards, like the use of simple words, correct grammar, and the unity and organization of
ideas to address the needs of its audience.

Examples:

Instead of: John is a good boy with nice ideas.


You can write: John is a remarkable boy with wonderful ideas.

Instead of: “Help” he said


You can write: “Help” he screamed.

Avoid using simplistic adjectives and adverbs such as good, bad, well, nice, very, big, etc.
They make your writing weak and less effective.
Instead, use words like huge, wonderful, highly, terrible, etc.

Lesson 2: Figures of Speech

OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
 Identify the figures of speech on the given statements or sentences
 Write their own sentences using any figures of speech
 Enumerate some importance of using figures of speech in a literary text

FIGURES OF SPEECH
These are words or phrases used in a non-literal sense for rhetorical or vivid effect. The most
common figures of speech are simile, metaphor, onomatopoeia, personification, apostrophe, hyperbole,
synecdoche, metonymy, oxymoron, and paradox.
1. Simile – a stated comparison (formed with “like” or “as” between two fundamentally
dissimilar things that have certain qualities in common.
Example: a. “Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?”
– Langston Hughes, “Harlem”
b. He is as strong as an ox.
c. Watching the show was like watching grass grow.
2. Metaphor – an implied comparison between two unlike things that have something in
common.
Example: a. “Hope is the thing with feathers – That perches in the soul –”
- Emily Dickinson, “Hope is the Thing with Feathers”
b. My brother was boiling mad. (This implies he was too angry.)
3. Onomatopoeia – uses words that imitate sounds associated with objects or actions.
Example: a. My teacher told me to shoosh, because I was making too much noise.
b. The rustle of the leaves startled the kids.
4. Personification – endows human qualities or abilities to inanimate objects or abstraction.
Example: a. She did not realize that opportunity was knocking at her door.
b. The stars danced playfully in the moonlight sky.
5. Apostrophe – is addressing an absent person or thing that is an abstract, inanimate, or
inexistent character.
Example: “Death be not proud, though some have called thee.”
- John Donne, “Death Be Not Proud”
6. Hyperbole – a figure of speech which contains an exaggeration for emphasis. Example:
a. “To make enough noise to wake the dead.”
– R. Davies, “What’s Bred in the Bone”
b. I’ve told you a million times.
c. I held the moon on my hand.
7. Synecdoche – a figure of speech in which the part stands for the whole, and thus something
else is understood within the thing mentioned.
Example: a. “Give us this day our daily bread”
*Bread stands for the meals taken each day.

8. Metonymy – a figure of speech in which the name of an attribute or a thing is substituted for
the thing itself.
Example: a. “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.”
– William Shakespeare, “Julius Caesar” *Lend me your ears = to pay
attention; to listen
b. The pen is mightier than the sword. (Pen refers to written words and sword to
military force.
9. Oxymoron – a figure of speech which combines incongruous and apparently contradictory
words and meanings for a special effect.
Example: “Here’s much to do with hate, but more with love. Why then, O brawling love! O
loving hate! O anything! Of nothing first create! O heavy lightness! Serious vanity! Mishapen chaos
of well-seeming forms!”
- William Shakespeare, “Romeo and Juliet”
10. Paradox – a statement which seems on its face to be logically contradictory or absurd yet
turns out to be interpretable in a way that makes sense.
Example: “One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.”
- John Donne, “Death Be Not Proud”

LESSON 3: Literary Sensory Experience

OBJECTIVES:
By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
 Describe the different senses use in creative writing; and
 Write specific materials that will describe the following senses.

READINGS Literary Sensory Experience

One of the ways to really familiarize learners of English (or any second or foreign language) is
by describing what our senses perceive. Instead of mixing perceptions of all senses, each sensory
perception can be divided into different exercises or activities so that the concentration is given to one of
them at one time.

Sight- is the primary sense and easiest to describe; hence, the exercise should start here. When
we talk about the things we see, we talk about the size, shape and color of the object. To describe the
size, we use words like small, big, tiny, fat, huge, thin, and so on. To describe the shape, we use words
like straight, square, round, curved and so on.
Smell- you smell something good or not good, you can write about it. We smell many things all
around us. Some smells are pleasant while others are revolting. Some of the words related to smell:
whiff, sniff, rotten, stink, scent, sweet, spicy, stench, pleasant, perfume, odor, foul, flowery.
Sound- you can write what you hear from other people. We hear many sounds around us all the
time. Some sounds are loud, some are soft. Some we like and some we don’t. here are some words that
we can use to describe a sound: thud, squeak, screech, soot, soft, purr, bang, roar, rumble, loud,
growl and melodious.
Taste- among the most inspired creative writings were done from the sense of taste—something
about food being tasted from travels to a particular province. We can mainly taste four different tastes:
sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. But every food that we have has a mixture of different tastes that make it
unique. Even the thought of food that we like makes our mouth water. Some of the words that can be
used when we are talking or writing about taste: spicy, tangy, weak, tasteless, sharp, bland, plain, tart,
and sugary.
Touch- write how you feel when you touch a particular thing such as the feeling of something
rough or smooth. Study the following words: smooth, silky, rough, grainy, fine, metallic, glassy, warm,
cool, cold, hot, icy, leathery, furry;

LESSON 4: Traits of Poetry Writing & The Elements that Greatly Contribute to a Poem

OBJECTIVES:
By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
 Add some elements that can contribute to a better poem; and
 Compose a poem considering the elements & traits in writing a poem

READINGS
Traits of Poetry Writing &
The Elements that Greatly Contribute to a Poem

Six Traits of Poetry Writing


 The Idea- this is the heart of your poem and the point of your message.
 The Organization- this is the internal strucutre of your poem. This talks about the line spacing,
indentation, or if the stanzas are rhymed and unrhymed.
 The Voice- this is the evidence of the writer behind the message. It’s all about the author's
emotions, attitude, tone and point of view through artful, well thought out use of word choice
and diction.
 The Word Choice- this talks of the vocabulary of terminology used or the words a poet chooses
to use. Word choice is extremely important in poetry, since the poem is such a compact form.
 The Fluency- this talks about the rhythm and flow- how it plays to the ear. Poetry should have a
rhythm and melody.
 The Form- the mechanical structure and correctness thereof, the length of the lines, their
rhythms, their system of rhymes and repetition.

Elements that Contribute Greatly to a Poem

 A poem should flow naturally for easy reading


 It should have rhytmic symmetry-there should be a corresponding rhythm with in the poem
 Effective rhyming adds to overall beauty and quality of a poem-finding the correct
corresponding rhyme makes for a better poem.

LESSON 5: Types of Poetry

OBJECTIVES:
By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
 Identify the types and subtypes of Poetry; and
 Give examples of narative, lyric, and dramatic poetry.

READINGS The Types of Poetry

Poetry- is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language—such as
phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre-to evoke meanings in addition to, orin place of the prosaic
ostensible meaning (Merriam Webster).
Poetry can be classified into three types: narrative, lyric, and dramatic poetry.

1.) Narative Poetry- this form describes important events in life either real or imaginary.
Here are some elements of narrative poetry that are important:
a. character
b. setting
c. conflict
d. plot
Kinds of Narrative Poetry:
1. Epic- it is an extended narrative about heroic exploits under supernatural control. It may deal with
heroes and gods. The hero/heroine usually has the following characteristics: idealism, wisdom,
beauty, endurance, chivalry, and justice. Example of this is the Biag ni Lam-ang of the Ilocano

2 Kinds of Epic Poetry:


a. Popular or Ancient Epic- often without a drfinite author and is of slow growth.
b. Modern Epic- with a definite author.

2. Metrical Tales- this is a narrative which is written in verse and can be classified either as a ballad or
metrical romance. Examples of these are simple idylls or home tales, love tales, or tales of the
supernatural.
3. Ballads- this is considered as the shortest and simplest of the narrative poems. It has a simple
structure and tells of a single incident.
Variations of these are: love ballads, war ballads, sea ballads, humorous, moral, historical, or
mythical ballads.

2.) Lyric Poetry- originally, this refers to that kind of poetry meant to be sung to the accompaniment of
a lyre, but now, this applies to any type of poetry that expresses emotions and feeling to the poet.
They are usually short, simple and easy to understand.
Types of Lyric Poetry:
1. Folksongs (Awiting Bayan)- these are short poems intended to be sung.the common theme
is love, despair, grief, doubt, joy, hope, and sorrow. Examples are Manang Biday and
Bahay Kubo
2. Sonnets- this is a lyric poem of 14 lines dealing with an emotion, a feeling or an idea.
There are two types: The Italian and Shakespearean Sonnet
3. Elegy- this is a lyric poem which expresses feelings of grief and melancholy, and whose
theme is death.
4. Ode- this is a poem of noble feeling, with no definite number of syllables or definite number
of line in a stanza.
5. Psalms- this is a song praising God or the Virgin Mary and containing a philosophy of life.
6. Awit (Song)- this has the measures of twelve syllables (dodecasyllabic) and slowly sung to
the accompaniment of a guitar or banduria. Example is the Florante at Laura (Francisco
Balagtas)
7. Corridos- this has the measures of eight syllables (Octosyllabic) and recited to a martial
beat. The songs are often about oppressions, daily life of peasants, and other socially
important information. Example is the Ibong Adarna

3.) Dramatic Poetry- this is an emotional piece of literature which includes a story which is recited or
sung. Soliloquy and dramatic monologues are the main instruments of this form of poetry.
C.1 Comedy- this word comes from the Greek term “Komos” meaning festivity or revelry. This
form usually is light and written with a purpose of amusing, and usually has a happy ending.
C.2 Melodrama- this is usually seen in musical play with the opera. Today, this is related to
tragedy just as the farce to comedy. It arouses immediate and intense emotion and is usualy sad
but there is a happy ending for the principal character.
C.3. Tragedy- this involves the hero struggling mightily against dynamic forces; he meets death
or ruin without success and satisfaction obtained by the protagonist in a comedy.
Example is the Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet
C.4 Farce- this is an exaggerated comedy. It seeks to arouse mirth by laughable lines; the
characters seem to be caricatures and the motives undignified and absurd.
C.5 Social Poems- this form is either pureply comic or tragic and its pictures the life of today. It
may aim to bring about cahnges in social conditions.

LESSON 5: Conventional Forms of Creative Poetry

OBJECTIVES:
By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
 Identify the conventional forms of creative poetry used in a poem; and
 Compose their own examples of Tanaga, Haiku, and Diona.

READINGS The Conventional Forms of Creative Poetry

A. Tanaga (maikling tula)- is a type of Filipino poem, consisting of four lines with seven syllables
each with the same rhyme at the end of each line--- that is to say a 7-7-7-7 Syllabic verse, with
AABB rhyme scheme.
Example: PALAY (Ildefonso Santos)
Palay siyang matino, You’re a blessing in disguise
Nang humangi’y yumuko; Tart and sour, yet sweet surprise
Ngunit muling tumayo Hidden in the attitude
Nagkabunga ng ginto Tongues with words of gratitude

Lesson 5 Exercises.
Exercise 1. Identify the following poems if it is a Tanaga, Haiku, and Diona.

1. Dragon flies erupt


Families blushing cinder
Mellowing cowgirls
2. Thought I’d hang around today
Come what will and come what may
Take it easy, breathe a bit
Toxic stress, time to emit
3. Grim water tumbles
Messy winter times grin, clowns
Recede, moons reproach
4. These things remind me of you
You gave life to the lifeless
You gave hope to the hopeless;
Gave spring to a wildernesss
5. You are my heart’s missing piece
Piece that will make it complete
And makes everyday so sweet.
