The only way I could answer something other than "Other/none of the above" was
to creatively expand the definition of "creative writing" to include
non-fiction, non-professional, articles, essays, memoirs, etc. While I have
been guilty of both attempted fiction and attempted poetry, I'm currently in
recovery as far as that sort of writing is concerned. <g>
