FEATURED PAPER
Beyond Is...
Creative writing with English Prime
Abstract: A brief history of a prescriptive English language discipline known as English Prime (E-Prime), a method of writing without use of the copula (the verb to be). Writing in E-Prime requires the author to expose the agent of a sentence and therefore lends itself favourably to other techniques of mimetic storytelling. An examination of my experiments using this constraint for creative writing demonstrates that utilising E-Prime enhances vernacular authenticity, improves clarity, readability and the quality of immersion in a text. The E-Prime constraint offers access to dynamics of language ordinarily subliminal.
Keywords: E-Prime, creative writing, creative nonfiction, literary innovation and experimentation

Beyond Is: Creative Writing with English Prime
[su_quote cite=”TEXT Vol 20,No 1, April 2016″ url=”http://www.textjournal.com.au/april16/editorial.htm”]Brentley Frazer’s paper on e-prime – its potential, its life-changing power, its effects upon prose, and its argument with common English – is a revelation and an inspiration, especially for teachers seeking a new approach to teaching the meaning of writing prose. Frazer has lucidly explicated some of the most complex aspects of e-prime’s basis in a linguistic critique of English. –Kevin Brophy[/su_quote]
