Are techniques used for creative writing avoided in other types of writing?
It depends on the writer. If you are in a business program, many people will say true. I personally believe it is false. Many people think that first-person writing is "unprofessional" ... and of course, as a student of or working for those people, it should be avoided. I think that removing the voice from anything makes the writing stilted. You can have professional first and second-person writing. It is possible. :) Other techniques can carry over as well. Using description, observation, detail... these techniques are great in marketing writing, and can be helpful in writing instructions or manuals. Creative writing techniques can enhance other types of writing.

How do you not use first and second person pronouns in academic writing?
In academic writing, you should focus on the topic rather than yourself. Instead of using first or second person pronouns like "I" or "you," opt for a more formal tone by rephrasing sentences to be more objective and authoritative. Use passive voice constructions or refer to the authors or researchers being cited to convey the same information without the use of personal pronouns.
