Did you know that there are 7 senses? Or wait is that 8? At any rate, no matter how many there are, a great writer uses ALL of them in EVERY place possible in their writing.

In this course, you will learn about our senses, how they work, and when, where and how to use them in your current WIP to set the scene, deepen emotion, and spark up action. Many resources for describing sensory elements will be provided.

We will cover:
  • Our Senses - How they work and why writers can't leave them out
  • The Magic of Touch
  • Scents, Aromas, and Stinks
  • Tasting the World
  • Listening for It
  • So Much to See
  • Finding Our Balance
  • Sensory Soup: Examples and cautions
  • Going Beyond: Extrasensory Madness

Course Bonus: Every participant in this workshop will receive a critique of one chapter or 3000
words of their WIP, with special attention to the use of sensory language.
Class Format
Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.

The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter. You will also be given simple instructions on how to create a PDF of all your discussions along with our privacy and data retention policy.
