Fantasy creative writting
The Fantasy creative writting has much in common with the experiential narrative, but

differs from it in one essential respect: in the fantasy narrative, the student is allowed to

transcend the boundaries of reality. It is intended to represent a fantastic experience in such a

way that it is although contains unrealistic elements, but does not drift completely into the

irrational and contradicts the laws of logic in every sentence. Exactly here lies for many

students also died particular difficulty of this type of essay: Quite a few overshoot the mark

and get bogged down in stories that list a smorgasbord of fantastic elements in just a few

lines (dwarves, magic powers, time travel, etc.) without building up a coherent plot. In this

respect, it is important to incorporate the fantasy aspect into an otherwise realistic setting.

Since this is often a great challenge for primary school students, one should only dare to

tackle such a type of text at the entrance exam if one is a "professionalcreative writter" and

has received mostly good grades so far.
