I'm both out of necessity but I'm a creative writer at heart. I need tools on how to stay focused, follow through with not only a Medium creative nonfiction, but also a novel I'm slowly working on. I feel a bit lost and I'm looking for structure, tips, guidance. Hope that helps!

Also both! A lot of my articles definitely weave the two together. I probably write more content between the two and plan to write more of it in 2021. I have this fear of using up my creative expression stories, but I'd love to learn how to write about them in multiple ways and still have them feel fresh.

Like others, I'm also both. leaning a bit more towards creative expression. Because writing is not may day job, I am interested in improving my craft and becoming a more engaging writer. Getting writing out is also important as I need to build that muscle and find an audience.

I’d say both. I’ve struggled lately with the idea of focusing on one more than the other but have come to the conclusion that I can do both but must prioritise accordingly on any given day/week. These days my content creating leans more towards conscious marketing and communications so not too far from satisfying my artist, finally. ☺️

I'm both. Content for clients and 'work'...and personally I write for myself and publish across a couple of platforms. Seems they are definitely interwoven...one build on the other and vice-versa.

I agree. They certainly enhance each other.

I'd like to explore both and not limit myself to one
