My creative writing stories suck! How can i develop good ideas because creative writing is one of my worst areas right now in English. Thanks a lot.
You need to think harder ruse boy.omg me too. i always write about a depressed girl getting rescued by a guy and i always get shit for it cause apparently its 'cliche'. what ISNT cliche that relates to belonging. -_-
i tried a plot where a guy signs up for cryonics and wakes up 200 yrs later and gets alienated cause everythings changed. but my teachers like 'gl with ur context lol'. im out of ideas. im just gonna get a c range and accept it.You need to think harder ruse boy.
Mate there's a little over three weeks. You still have time to make a solid creative.i tried a plot where a guy signs up for cryonics and wakes up 200 yrs later and gets alienated cause everythings changed. but my teachers like 'gl with ur context lol'. im out of ideas. im just gonna get a c range and accept it.

My English coordinator marks the English belonging essays, and mine is a 15/15, but I got 14/15 for the CSSA trials because, for the image of the family standing by the beach, I did not mention the phones they were holding.
So for the AOS, make sure your story reflects contemporary issues (so not another 'travel overseas and feel sad' story)– this resonates really well with the markers who know you have put research and thought into it, at least that's what I did. And make it flexible, as prepared answers can be screwed over so easily by the stimulus material (which is what I'm worrying most about for Extension English). And don't base your story off your own personal experiences, unless your experiences are quite interesting and can engage a bored marker.
It was dark. And hot. I had just arrived in India, 2am and the heat was unbearable. Things are so different here. There's temples everywhere. A man stops me on the corner, selling plastic figurines of the Taj Mahal, somehow forgetting we're nowhere near the building. I stop and grab some food from a vendor. Not at all like at home. I've only been away a few hours and I'm already missing everyone. And everything. The clothes are different. The heat is different. I don't belong at all here.Hey what do you mean by 'so not another 'travel overseas and feel sad' story'?
Read a lot of good creative-take note of the kind of expression, thematic concern, experimental forms of narrative structures that can work, draw ideas from your own experiences and always plan your stories before writing it-rather it is character development, plot, structure, or as simple as deciding on the specific facets of the rubric that you are exploring in your creative writing. ALWAYS REFER BACK TO THE RUBRIC in your exploration of conceptual ideas, and use the given stimulus in a SIGNIFICANT way consistently throughout your story-i.e. both on a literal and metaphorical level.My creative writing stories suck!
