It is easy to remember grammar school. All the grammatical rules and mistakes we make can take us deep inside the portals of our mind. Our mistakes are our creativity telling us something. Look at the "pop" poetry and writing online. You will see that grammar is taking a new turn. Spelling is different in the twenty first century. You can see that with text and facebook.
Words can get interesting and gain depth from an old poetry book at the library. To understand one’s writing in a fine line is to take advantage of your mistakes and fatigue. When a little fatigue pops in just keep on writing or start writing. When the heart is open just write from it and keep grammar to what you know. To go beyond the limits you are at with your grammar can cause a communication problem between the writer and reader.
Nothing is bad.
Nothing is wrong in a rough draft. Use your focus when recreating your rough draft like molding clay. Keep that state of mind. Some writing takes more than a day. Others writing might just flow in a couple of hours. Thoughts need to be clear. Though when fatigued write the things that you fear. It is overcoming the fear of what all your teachers have taught you. Let individuals see your imagination when you are writing for an audience of those who can see what you have in your mind for the writing world you seek. No need to be meek or humble.
Heal yourself with expression. Exaggerate a true story with emotions. Let your setting be the atmosphere you have physically been in. An atmosphere that brought out emotions and imagination is a great one to fictionalize in creative writing. Nothing can take your efforts away. Get rid of your work. In doing this you will allow yourself to remember. Ideas will flow off of old writings that are no longer in sight.
Look at art and sculpture. Let your mind roam. Spend some time alone no matter what others think. Get in a safe in public alone that will allow you to put reality in your writing that is unique to you. You will be a different person and ideas will flow. It does not always have to be something that you know. Just think of something that will let yourself and others grow. Do not pay the toll on straining yourself to know. Stretching your intellect beyond what you truly know to what you feel and are connected with creates more results. Let emotions as opposed to intellect roll. You can do it! Just relax. Your creativity is tapped into through being and knowing. You will brush up what your creativity and mind thinks you messed up lat
