Ask your teacher :)
I had read some very detailed and sophisticated diary entries before yr 11 and they were more than 2 pages..

A normal 'good' creative writing piece is usually at least 800-1000 words, but this would vary depending on the time limit you have for the creative. The most important thing is not the amount you write, but how effectively you explore central ideas relevant to the english module you are studying in the amount of words you have to write.

I'd say around 900 is the minimum that you'd probably want if it was a hand in task as I feel it is the only way you can properly express your ideas.
