Using Description in Your Writing – How does any writer make the reader become involved in the scene – smell what the hero smells, see what he sees, and has the same feelings of joy, sadness or anxiety that he has? We will present some helpful illustrations and time to practice writing descriptions.
Interview the Authors – We have put together a series of questions that students usually ask writers. Feel fee to choose from the list provided to you as a start. Of course, additional questions from students will be welcomed.
Describing a Character or a Scene – The young writer will practice writing a description of someone she is familial with: physical, disposition, or some other characteristic. Then, she will place the character in a setting that can be described using the writers’s senses. We will read descriptions from our books, and some students’ descriptions will be read as well.
