Are you ready to write some poetry? It is the weekend and either you are extra busy or have lots of time to relax and write....
I have the pleasure of speaking in college and high school
classes as well as other places out and about town and the parks and hills and
wherever I am called to facilitate the creative process.
One of my stand-by talks is for students in art classes who
are learning to write objectively about a work of art – or later in their jobs about
anything, anywhere, anytime.
This time, I had each student look in their books for the
important objective information about the work of art: the name, size, artist,
and then I ask the same question over and over again.
“What do you see?”
This simple question is the root to exceptional writing. It has the power to
take you anywhere you might want to go with your words.
