My Critic versus My Creator

We will be working on an assignment that personifies your inner Critic and your inner Creator.  We each have a Creator within us, that person who allows us to be free in the Arts with no judgment - that person who allows us to write, to create, to express ourselves.  On the other hand, we all have a critic as well - that person who tells us "You're not quite good enough" or "Everything you write, everything you create, everything you do - is lame".  Your task for this assignment is to describe both your Creator and your Critic. 

What do your Creator and Critic look like?   Are they men or women?  What kind of clothes do they wear?  What are their names?  What do they do for fun?  Do they have hobbies?  What do they say to you?  Create a character for both your inner Creator and inner Critic.  How do they contrast one another?  Have fun with this assignment!

In this class, we are going to boot your Critic in the butt and focus on your Creator!  Remember what poor Sylvia Plath said: "The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt." 

Never doubt your mad writing skills - because you do have them.
