Your Master Metaphor

Your Master Metaphor

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

Make one of the most versatile literary tools your own in three stimulating hours. In his Poetics, Aristotle wrote, “The greatest thing by far is to have a command of metaphor…For to make good metaphor implies an eye for resemblances.” Together with instructor Sierra Prasada and like-minded peers, you’ll consider cross-genre examples of masterful metaphors and what they reveal about generating sticky ideas and finding the unity of theme, imagery, and language that give your work in progress coherence and power. Your own master metaphor will enable you to push past self-doubt and other obstacles, and you’ll go home ready to read and write in a fresh new way.
