Metaphorical Stew [E] What do you do when a simple description isn't enough? Create a metaphor. |
Greetings and Happy Account Anniversary! Oh, boy, what a hilarious way to finish off my port raid! I’m glad I peeked in your “funny folder“… wasn’t sure if there’d be anything within my rating preference, but this is a gem. Every one of those metaphors was more absurd than the last, and managing to combine them all into a coherent story is quite a feat. It makes me wonder how many quirky metaphors I’ve used and whether I might be guilty of using too many. I remember one story I wrote recently for the latest What a Character… my friend Joey that I told you about “rewrote” the opening scene for me to demonstrate a more vivid and visceral “showing” style, and so I dutifully redid the whole thing, and I’ve been wondering for the past month if I overloaded the “colorful” descriptions while failing to improve the actual character arc or final conflict resolution. As usual, larger font, but that’s just a space filler. I’m pleased with my exploration within your port; I suppose it wouldn’t be out of place to say I’m being richly rewarded for my efforts by NaNoNette . You’re well aware of the Anniversary Reviews project. This was a nice way to spend my spare time today. Take care, thanks for sharing and keep writing My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
