creative writing:creating unique writing style-language
In creative writing, you try to send a message to your readers. You can only do that through communication. We all know that communication is at the core of literature. You may wish to write in vernacular, English or pidgin. Most writers 65 use English, some mix pidgin with Standard English sometimes to delineate characters. Pidgin is becoming popular among literary artists. The reason is twofold: firstly, they intend to reach a wider audience and secondly, it arouses humour. Whichever medium of communication you choose, ensure that you write coherently, accurately and beautifully. Ensure that you comply with rules of grammar in the language you have chosen. Apart from the rule of grammar, you could write beautifully if you have a “rich vocabulary and the capacity to put it to effective use, utilizing the figures of speech and other devices characteristic of the language (Ike 18). In this case you will not over- use certain words and expressions. You will be in a positions to use the right words or expressions in the right places. Apart from good dictionaries, the computer is very helpful because you can check the synonyms of certain words as you write (if you are writing straight with the computer) and choose the most appropriate words. However, always refer to a regular dictionary where you could get the exact meaning of the words before you use them because some synonyms could be misleading. Also avoid using clichés.
