Description
A Guide to Creative Writing and the Imagination by Kris Saknussemm offers a fresh approach to teaching creative writing for the modern generation. This volume strengthens key capabilities of imagination, including physical and mental alertness, clarity of perception, and attention to detail, through imitation and examples inspired by various art forms. The book incorporates techniques from unexpected sources, such as African American musical improvisation, Brancusi's sculptural ideas, and National Geographic photography, to enhance writing skills in poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and drama. By drawing on these diverse influences, students can develop their own unique voice and style. Suitable for undergraduate and M.F.A. level study, A Guide to Creative Writing and the Imagination is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their core writing skills.
