3:11 / Imagery / Enhancements F

It’s the 100th episode. Time to Celebrate.

And

Besides symbolic colors and numbers, how else can we add single words and short phrases to enhance our writing? We’re delving into simple touches that we can add to stories and poems and novels AND nonfiction essays and blogs to enrich the text for our readers.

Key words here are simple touches. These carry a tremendous wealth of information.

By having several tools in our writers’ toolbox, we can layer our enhancements in with a light touch. With our previously discussed metaphors and other figures of speech, we dab in a color symbol or three, a number here and there. But we’ve barely explored the writer’s toolbox.

In this episode of The Write Focus, we offer another method to touch a highlight to our writing.
