Poetic Elements

Let's talk alliteration. Do you have many multiple myopic examples of purposely popping prose? GOOD.

Alliteration is the repetition of consonant sounds in a line. Like my example, you can have one than one alliterative sound in a sentence.

If you have this already, BOLD your text. If not, make a comment in your Doc to do so!

Imagery

Imagery is using the five senses to build a scene for your reader to feel like they are present. What can you craft for them to see, feel, hear, smell (the hardest!), or taste?

SHOW US, don't TELL US (italicize)!

Advice

• Start with your scenes. Build these first.

• Add in alliteration/edit your lines AFTER your imagery/scenery.

• Choose a small moment and add in detail!
