Practice Session #26: Close Reading for Generative Writing

In this 90-minute Practice session, we’ll read a few carefully chosen excerpts and read like writers. We’ll study short texts and notice craft elements like—tone, rhythm, repetition, point of view, and overall structure and approach—and consider how each writer uses language to deliver an image, a feeling, or a slice of story. Then we’ll use those discoveries as entry points into our own generative writing. The purpose of this session is more creative listening, less literary analysis. Together, we will experiment with reading as a creative catalyst and writing from literary inspiration.
