Create Beyond the Abstract

 


What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter time; it is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset. Last words of Crowfoot, Blackfoot Chief
     

Writers discover ways to reveal feelings, thoughts, and conditions. Imagery creates a path to share life experiences beyond abstract words: beauty, love, fear, courage. 

Find your notions about life without mentioning the abstract word. Demonstrate the sounds, scents, textures, and colors of "beauty."  

Create beyond the abstract. Detail your experiences so readers will connect with them.
