The article presents the preliminary remarks regrinding the narrative on creative process in the literature of the personal document (particularly in dairies and partially in letters) of two poets: Maryla Wolska and her daughter Beata Obertyńska. The aim of the conducted analyses was to research the artistic self-awareness of both women, the description method of their own creative process and the potential relation between understanding the nature of poetry and poetry’s craft. Reading of Wolska’s and Obertyńska’s letters points towards a particular role of community of artists in the creative process, whose opinions shape the creation at last.
