Creative writing

when teachers usually give paper/writing projects, it is on a certain topic. regardless, the writing demonstrated by each individual student who turns that paper in hands over hundreds words worth of creativity. papers usually with guidelines can limit the amount of creativity put forth by a student in their paper, however, every single word written by the student came from his or her own personal style and thought. this is what sets us apart from one another, we all have different ways of doing things; this to me can be a part of the definition of creativity. as we write, we gather our opinions about the text and or topic, and attempt to support it with evidence. creativity comes in play when we write, using both/either of these methods. although citing specific evidence may not necessarily be creative, the thought process that we write down to put evidence in our own words can very well be involved in creativity. our opinions, obviously, are creative as well because we are all capable of being pursuaded differently, but we all write and express ourselves in our own unique way.
