Creative Writing about Culture Assignment Creative writing about culture.
Do something that isn’t too broad but is creative with it. I am an African American and Filipino male who was born in Colorado but moved to Tennessee when I was a baby. That can help you craft a story around me and not a broad writing piece. Jonathan Franzen claimed he won’t write about race because of limited ‘firsthand experience’, while Lionel Shriver hopes objection to ‘cultural appropriation is a passing fad’. So should there be boundaries on what a novelist can write about?
