Poetics of Sensorium with Basmah Sakrani

Join us for a sensory creative writing where we dive deep into the five senses and learn how to use them to craft immersive scenes and unforgettable stories.

Class

In this luscious class, look at how other writers leverage the way they See, Hear, Touch, Taste, Smell to create vivid imagery and spend some time generating new writing together across the five senses.

The goal during our time together is to inspire engagement with our surroundings and characters in a deeper, more immersive way.

Our five senses are tools for creating rich, dynamic worlds that pull readers in.

Our time together will be a balance of compelling literary examples, discussion and writing adventures through prompt that encourage us to experiment with each sense while also paying attention to how senses can build emotional depth and theme.
