Three (03) Forms of Writing- Know the Difference among Creative Writing, Content Writing, and Copywriting

Three forms of writing poster. Forms include Creative Writing, Content Writing, and Copywriting

No doubt, writing is an art, which comes through practice and patience. The most important criterion for falling under a writer category is "The will to write"

Remember? "Where there is will, there is the way"

Then comes observation and analytical skills.

This art exists in various forms around us. I will elaborate three major forms mostly seen and talked about.

Creative Writing (CW)

CW is a form of writing to entertain or aware people. It is purely the creation of head and heart. It includes stories, novels, poems jingles and even essays or opinions. It is the oldest form of writing yet available to us with increasing demand.

It is mostly written for traditional media i.e. Newspapers, Magazines, Books etc.

One to note is that, a creative writer does not need to possess a marketing mind i.e they rarely consider their readers' ease and preferences, which have changed due to digital media.

The other two forms of writing are more close to the field of marketing.

Content Writing

Content writing is also meant to aware and entertain people, but it is purely based on the readers' preferences and ease.

Content provided is simple, to the point, easy to understand yet thoroughly discusses all key points and provides a link if needed.

It is all time friend of digital media. It emerged with the emergence of digital media.

Website owners, and bloggers use this form of writing.

The purpose is to increase website visitors and retain them by providing useful content and workable headlines.

Copywriting

Copywriting is a form of writing specifically used for advertising and generating sales.

The writers specialise in conveying an ad message in few yet attention grabbing words.

It existed before digital media, and is yet being used with few shifts in techniques being used. Specially trends and memes.

I hope this was meaningful and worth reading, was it? Let me know.

Myth of Freelancing | Opinion

Image
Freelancing is very easy, and you can be your own boss. You can do whatever, whenever, and wherever. You may have heard these lines very often. In my opinion however, these are flawed lines and are used only to develop interest and have nothing to do with freelancing in reality. Almost all experienced freelancers would suggest you : stick to only one skill set. So that you can focus on your expertise and provide greater value. But I will somehow disagree with them because what they are saying may be quite right, but only for their own level. They rarely understand or speak on beginner’s level. The level that they are at, has much freelance work, and has a team of their own. So, they are not facing the same problems as the beginners. As a matter of fact, there are many complexities as you start your journey at freelancing as a beginner. Not only you need to be patient, which is said by almost everybody, but also you need to have enough time, enthusiasm and sometimes little i

Creating Drives

Creating Drives Drive, though a little word, has many meanings emerging from different senses of use. One of which is to motivate. Here, it is worth mentioning that its meaning to motivate is in the most advanced sense. Which means to motivate oneself to accomplish a desired aim by any means. So, creating drives for oneself to remain focused and keep moving without being stuck in useless things is the best way to achieve success. The first and foremost thing about it is it makes one achieve one’s goal. For example, you feel hungry because of a deficiency of energy and food. This deficiency creates a drive in your body which makes you reduce this by eating. Similar is the case with being thirsty. Have you ever thought about what motivational speakers do? They just give you the idea to create a drive. Because only you can create one for yourself.  So creating drives makes you accomplish your aim.  A second interesting thing about it is you do not feel obsessed with doing much for

Dialogue Between Pen and Pencil

Pen vs Pencil Dialogue Between Pen and Pencil The grass was green as ever, the sun was angry as never. The air was cool enough to touch the skin and relax it. the place where they were sitting was a garden. Both were looking cool and comfortable to face the scene.  The day was peaceful, Pen and Pencil were facing each other and the arguments begin as, Pen: You are so unrealistic and overly down to earth. You do whatever people say to you and they manipulate you often. Pencil : People are not perfect and they do make wrong choices and commit mistakes, I am just considerate about them. It is your negative mind that you consider people as deceivers and manipulators, However, I just think that it is self-correction and not manipulation. Pen : Wow! It means my judgment about you is justified. Pencil : What judgment? Pen : That you are unrealistic! Penci l : Oh! come on, People are not always behaving as you think. Tell me what if you had written in you
