Creative writing is an excellent avenue for exploring yourself, your experiences, and your beliefs. As a nurse, it is not uncommon for the day to present challenging, or overwhelming, experiences that can be difficult to process. Using this week’s readings and discussion forum as inspiration, plan and write your own creative reflection. Unlike the course’s previous writing assignments, this assignment is much more open-ended, allowing you the opportunity to be creative in this personal exploration.
At the minimum, the Creative Reflection must:
Be carefully proofread and free of errors
Be a minimum of 400 words (may include poetry, personal narrative, profile, blog/journal entry, etc.)
Focus on a personal experience or belief

The Creative Reflection does not have to:
Be in traditional/standard essay format
Include a thesis statement, topic sentence, or other core essay components
For specific grading criteria for this assignment, review the Creative Reflection Rubric.
Before you prepare your final draft, review the Creative Reflection Instructions, so you are well aware of all of the requirements for this assignment.
Essay and prewriting/planning assignments must be submitted in Word document (.doc, .docx) form. Assignments submitted in ANY other form, including but not limited to PDF, Google Docs, and .pages, will not be accepted and will receive a zero grade.
