A razor focus on writing, it’s episode nineteen!
The cattiest podcast so far, our first podcast of 2020 has us hitting the ground running! For the past few workshops, we’ve been adapting lessons from Beyond the First Draft by Laurel Yorke. Some of what we covered include:
Deep vs. Thesaurus Revision
Abstract vs. Concrete Imagery
The Synchronization of Honesty and Complexity in Your Writing
The YWS trustees also gave us updates on their writing journey. We also discussed the things that wrinkled our brains. Titles and works like:
Writing My Wrongs: Life, Death, and Redemption in an American Prison by Shaka Senghor
Ashley Poston and her many works
The Lottery by Shirley Jackson
