How to write a creative story?
Write In One Sitting. Write the first draft of your story in as short a time as possible.
Develop Your Protagonist. Stories are about protagonists,and if you don’t have a good protagonist,you won’t have a good story.
Create Suspense and Drama. To create suspense,set up a dramatic question.
Show,Don’t Tell. Honestly,the saying “ show,don’t tell ” is overused. However,when placed next to the step above,it becomes very effective.
Write Good Dialogue. Good dialogue comes from two things: intimate knowledge of your characters and lots of rewriting.
Write About Death. Think about the last five novels you read. In how many of them did a character die? Good stories often involve death.
Edit Like a Pro. Most professional writers write three drafts or more. The first draft is often called the “vomit draft” or the “shitty first draft.”
Know the Rules,Then Break Them. Good writers know all the rules and follow them. Great writers know all the rules and break them.
Defeat Writer’s Block. The best way to defeat writers block is to write. If you’re stuck,don’t try to write well. Don’t try to be perfect.
Share Your Work. You write better when you know someone will soon be reading what you’ve written.

What are some examples of creative writing?
The Work Which You Can Recognise as Creative Writing. As said before, fiction, poetry and non-fiction are the examples of creative writing. They are examples because they are obviously creative and not necessarily true (with the exception of non-fiction). Fiction is written to entertain and educate.
