Anyone can learn to write with creativity in USU's new club - USU Statesman

NOTE: UTAH
Anyone can learn to write with creativity in USU's new club - USU Statesman: "The Creative Writing Club is a group that caters to students who love writing things like fiction, poetry and narrative essays. The club was started in March by friends Rebecca Thorpe, a junior in landscape architecture, and Lisa Montgomery, a sophomore in English.
�� �'I love the creative writing classes,' Montgomery said. 'The teachers are great. I love the program.'
�� �But she wanted more. In-class writing just wasn't enough.
�� �Since Thorpe isn't an English major, she wasn't taking any writing classes but still enjoyed writing, and did it on her own time outside of schoolwork. She and Montgomery began swapping stories, critiquing each others work and giving feedback to enhance their work.
�� �This sparked the idea that it would be more beneficial to do the same thing with a number of other people as well, and the Creative Writing Club was born."
