Thank you to everyone who attended our first “Begin With” generative series. We kicked off with a Begin with Image series workshop. I hope you find these prompts helpful for sparking some inspiration.
Join The Creative Crossover community to connect and create. This fun, generative workshop helps you remove blocks to explore your creativity and play with possibilities. Through the Begin With series, Kelly explores one element of craft to help you understand the writing and grow your process. In this session, we will focus on imagery, harnessing its power to create a powerful connection with the reader. Expect a warm and friendly environment where you can meet, write, and share your work with writers of all levels.
In this workshop, participants will:
Read and discuss examples of powerful images
