Whatever We Imagine


WHATEVER WE IMAGINE
by Antonio C. Antonio

Writing for social media is a freedom and opportunity to be enjoyed by both writer and reader as well.  Although writers should be given the latitude and elbow room to be creative, this freedom should be guided by a certain degree of reality and truth.

Creative writing is just a means or tool of expression.  “Creative writing is any writing that goes outside the bounds of normal professional, journalistic, academic, or technical forms of literature, typically identified by an emphasis on narrative craft, character development, and the use of literary tropes (meaning: a figurative or metaphorical use of a word or expression) or various traditions of poetry and poetics.” (Wikipedia)  A lot will still depend on the idea that is moulded in the minds of readers as a result of the creative juices of the writer.

So long as the exercise of creative writing is not offensive to others, it should be acceptable.  Then, again, the appreciation of the written material would always depend on the reader or the receiver of the stimuli.  Stimulus is a thing or event that evokes a specific functional reaction in an organ or tissue; a thing that rouses activity or energy in someone or something; a spur or incentive; or, anything interesting and exciting in quality.  Therefore, if creative writing is acceptable, we can certainly write about whatever we imagine.

Just my little thoughts…
