'Responding through creative writing and to creative writing is largely what creative writers do. Let me repeat that, with a little more explanation. A creative writer responds to the world, to things from their imaginations, to their experiences, to ideas, to emotions, and so on, through the actions of doing creative writing. A creative writer also frequently shows an interest in both their own creative writing and in the creative writing of others, the actions and the results, and in that sense responds to creative writing. It is important to clearly acknowledge both these facts, because it is in this that is located much of what is meant by actively engaging in creative writing.' (Graeme Harper, Why Our Responses Matter, Introduction)
