What goes on in creative writers' heads when they write? What can
cognitive psychology, neuroscience, literary studies and previous
research in creative writing studies tell creative writers about
the processes of their writing mind? Creative writers have for
centuries undertaken cognitive research. Some described cognition
in vivid exegetical essays, but most investigated the mind in
creative writing itself, in descriptions of the thinking of
characters in fiction, poetry and plays. The inner voicings and
inner visualising revealed in Greek choruses, in soliloquies, in
stream-of-consciousness narratives are creative writers' 'research
results' from studying their own cognition, and the thinking of
others. The Creative Writer's Mind is a book for creative writers:
it sets out to cross the gap between creative writing and science,
between the creative arts and cognitive research.
