Friday Free Write with Antoinette Brim
Pocketful of Images
Perhaps imagery is the seat of cognition, how we learn about, process, measure, and mete out meaning. At the minimum, imagery is the foundation of all creative writing. During our 90-minute session, we will rediscover the power of imagery and metaphor to give concreteness to abstraction and we will generate fresh, new language to enliven and enrich our creative work.
