August 2022 Writer's Night
Textures: Considering Sound in Writing

Add to your calendar
Date: August 2, 6:00 pm-7:30pm
Continues Until:
Location: 1803 N. 7th Street
Details: Join us as local poet Lisa Wence Connors presents Textures: Considering Sound in Writing. In writing, sound is more than just using sound words, like whisper or clang. Sound is the actual letters themselves and the sounds they make. Consider what a garden sounds like – long and short I’s, soft S’s and H’s, perhaps? Using Hyacinth or Narcissus, rather than flowers gives the feeling of a quiet morning in the garden. Choosing the right words based on sound can add subtle layers of meaning, tone, and texture to our writing.
