Episode 129 – Paint Me A Word Picture
This week the guys sit down to discuss the topic of descriptions. Whether talking about a person, place, or thing, the reader only knows what they look like by how we describe it. How much descriptive text is enough, and when is too much? Enjoy!
Scott Roche’s new e-zine – Flying Island Press
This week’s promo – David Williams’ “The Machinery of Light”
Good show, gents….but bad form with the Tolkien bashing. We should all strive to create a rich world as he did.
We doesn’t likes the bashingses. 😛
Great show!
Terry, may I suggest a book entitled, “Word Painting”, by Rebecca McClanahan? ….. might be useful.
Thanks for the suggestion, NATS614. I have that book on my shelf, so I’m sure I read it at one time. I’ll look at it again and see if I can remember why it wasn’t that much of a help for me.
