Event Details

“We think in both images and words, and since words are imaginary enactments (the word ‘tree’ is not a tree), thinking and imagining are one.”

—Mary Ruefle, On Imagination


Embracing Multitudes: On Imagination + Imagery in Poetry
July 16, 7PM (EST)


Images—built with sensory details—immerse readers into the experience of our poems and stories. This one-hour webinar is open to any writer interested in learning more about imagery and how poets use sensory details to create specific images that saturate and echo throughout their work. We will talk about what an image is, how we experience images as readers, and how to build and echo an image in our own writing. We will learn how to move from cliché expressions to specific experiences, and how to balance abstract concepts (such as joy, time, memory, identity, etc.) with concrete details. Poetry is an attempt to express the inexpressible, to name the unnamable, and the image is one of the most significant building blocks for our creative writing.


This webinar is led by Ashley Taylor, a poet performer and MFA candidate at Spalding University’s School of Professional and Creative Writing. Ashley is an educator who designs diverse, collaborative creative arts workshops; more at www.ashleytaylorpoet.com
