A Fresh Take on Metaphors in Prose

Take this workshop to attempt the impossible: defining and operationalizing a good metaphor. In this class, we’ll practice generating metaphors by exploring specific patterns of word association. We’ll reverse-engineer sample metaphors to find what makes them work (or not work!) and discuss how context impacts the effectiveness of metaphors. Let’s collaborate like a pack of oddly-literate wolves!
