What is the difference between academic writing and other forms of writing such as creative writing?

Academic writing is stiff, formal writing that contains a thesis, as in essays and term papers. Academic writing is supported by references, cited correctly throughout the text. It deals with controversial, analytical, nonfictional or literary subjects. Creative writing is a more relaxed, casual writing. It is written directly from the imagination; so it can be written about anything. However, in some creative writing, you do need to research for your prose and poetry. In the case that you don't know much about the civil war, but you want to write a historical fiction work like "Jacob's Ladder" then you'd have to research the civil war.
