Creative writing

Where can I do this?

At home

Are the costs to get started high or low?

Low

Would I be doing this in a group, in a couple, or on my own? 
Creative writing

Alone

Are there physical requirements that might make it difficult for me to participate?

Open to all

So what's it all about?

Anyone can write! Because writing is about exploring what it feels like to put your own ideas, memories, and imaginings down in words. It doesn't necessarily have to be about producing something other people might want to read.

Writing is free: you could start this very moment. Pick up a pen, a pencil, a crayon, a stick of chalk. Type on your phone, your laptop, or a library computer.

If you need help getting started, google "creative writing" and a thousand and one guides will turn up. If you want company, you will find online and offline communities to join as well as classes for every budget.

Think beyond the novel or short story. Poetry, lyrics, memoir, essays, fan fiction, plays, film or TV scripts, journals or even letters all count.
