An interior shot of the Writing Barn, Austin, Texas
Today I’m blogging over at the Writing Barn blog about a really useful writing device called the objective correlative. If you’re tired of your characters always smiling or gritting their teeth to show their emotions, you’ll want to learn more. Yup.
Ah, the objective correlative! Well explained! And so timely, since I have trouble describing emotion in my WiP. I remember many a discussion at VCFA when someone tried to explain the concept, only to face a room of blank faces. Thank you T. S. Eliot!
Yeah! It sounds so exalted and enigmatic, but really, it’s just symbolism of a sort. I’m posting as a guest, so this is going to be interesting to see how WordPress identifies me.
There! I approved me. Hey L. Marie, thanks for your comments!
