The Fabric of Fiction: Writing Description and Setting

The Fabric of Fiction: Writing Description and Setting

Presented by The Writer's Center at The Writer's Center

T.S. Eliot once wrote that “the great aim is accurate, precise and definite description. The first thing is to recognize how extraordinarily difficult this is...each man sees a little differently, and to get out clearly and exactly what he does see, he must have a terrific struggle with language.” This one-day seminar will focus on the difficulties and the pleasures of setting, mood, description, and the telling detail: the subtle elements which constitute the fabric of fiction.
