It's very important to develop a good thought flow for creative writing and it's equally important to structure your thoughts well.

We all are born creative and creative writing is nothing but expressing that creativity through words. We learn to speak by listening to our elders and and thus we recognise words and its meanings. Similarly, to write, we have to read a lot. Reading stimulates our thought process and gives us sufficient information on the said topic. It also improves our vocabulary and our knowledge of grammar of that particular language. And when you are filled with sufficient information, you will automatically start writing. Keep your mind open. Try to read as much as possible about the subjects/topics which interest you. Writing will automatically come to you. read less

For learning creative writing skills, does a person required to know strong written English?
To practice is to understand and drive with confidence. Written skills always give a breakeven path in what you deal with. Justify your capability to drive it, so it is evident if you take English as a medium to communicate
