Creativity and the Creative Process

       Successful authors are said to see the same-self, soul on a white page and project the right letters.  Something in the words that are chosen causes images to become coherent.   (Rosenberg, 2010) What is it that certain thing that makes literature interesting?  Creative writing is anything where the purpose is to inspire thoughts, feelings, and emotions rather than to simply relay information.  (Hale, n.d.)  What is the creative proocess?  What is the aesthetic system that forms active participation with an idea?  Meanings assigned to symbols and intentions assumed behind the will to receive pleasure are what form a theme.  Everyone comes with an understanding.  A creator of literary art might explain a moral or fact of life with words in stories or poems.  Literature stimulates the mind, has the potential to influence action, and to engage in it with prolific intention is like downloading existential understanding to your soul.  "Poetry exists to be heard, to be listened to for the echoes of life experiences that it presents."  (Clugston, 2010)
