Anyone Can Write offers a wealth of creative writing tasks which will be an indispensable source of ideas for teachers. The book includes a variety of exercises on writing features, stories and poems. In all, the book offers guidance on forty different story-writing tasks, five feature-writing tasks, and fourteen poetry-writing tasks. The simple step-by-step explanation of the procedure to be adopted for each task makes the book very user-friendly. The tasks included in this book have evolved from a series of workshops on creative writing the authors have conducted for students in the age group of twelve to seventeen years. The samples of writing included to illustrate each task are authentic writings of students who participated in the workshops. These will help readers gauge the feasibility of the tasks and the level of response that can be expected from learner groups.
