“Before you begin to write a sentence, imagine the scene you want to paint with your words. Imagine that you are the character and feel what the character feels. Smell what the character smells, and hear with that character’s ears. For an instant, before you begin to write, see and feel what you want the reader to see and feel.”
~Othello Bach
Great advice. Helps with focus and clearing out the cobwebs.
I seem to have an overabundance of cobwebs today. Ugh!
That’s a great quote. I’m thinking it will have to go on my wall.
I thought so too 🙂
