Recording: Sound and Symbol - How to Use Poetry to Deepen Your Prose with Carol Despeaux Fawcett
In this webinar, we’ll dive deep into how poetry can add sensory engagement to your prose. You’ll create metaphors and extended metaphors for your works in progress. You’ll learn how to construct sentences in the most effective way possible using cadence, repetition, and sound. You’ll focus on specificity in language to create imagery that deepens character development and emotion. Poetry forces the writer to think about language and every word used in a more direct and articulate way. It places emphasis on the creative properties of language as a way of communicating emotion, suggesting meaning, and creating a mood. This will be a fun, hands-on workshop with plenty of time for writing.
