A Practical Approach to Creative Writing: Theory * Process * Practice A Process-Based textbook for UG & PG Students

By Dr. Diganta Kumar Nath

Designed in line with the Skill Enhancement Course (SEC) framework of the FYUGP, A Practical Approach to Creative Writing offers a dynamic and accessible guide to the art of writing.

Blending theory with practice, the book introduces students to the fundamentals of creative writing-imagination, observation, and language-before moving to essential techniques such as imagery, dialogue, and narrative structure. It provides detailed guidance on poetry, short story, and novel writing, along with focused discussions on character, plot, setting, and atmosphere.

What sets this book apart is its strong practical orientation. With carefully designed activities, classroom exercises, and model analyses, it enables learners to actively engage in the creative process. The exploration of how a short story can expand into a novel adds a unique dimension to the study of narrative.

Clear, structured, and application-oriented, this book is an ideal companion for SEC courses, as well as for all students seeking to develop their creative and critical abilities.
