Visual Literacy: Using Images to Enrich Your Writing *SOLD OUT*

*SOLD OUT*

Award-winning novelist Alan Cumyn guides you through image-based exercises to unlock your creativity while exploring fundamentals of strong, visually rich writing. Whether we write fiction, non-fiction, poetry, or memoir, we’ve all heard the advice to “show, not tell.” Using evocative paintings, photographs and texts as jumping-off points, students craft new work paying particular attention to mood, atmosphere, situation, detail, what needs to be on the page… and what does not. Come prepared to play and to write! Limited enrolment.
