On Writing (And Fanfiction)

Episode 4: What's a Metaphor?


Listen Later

Zoey's laptop is back from the hospital, and with it, a new episode! Thanks for waitin', folks. This week, Jake is giddy with nerd excitement as we talk about the wizardly wordsmithery of poetry, and how it can be a great tool for the emergent writer to really get a hold of figurative language. Stick around at the end for a reading of Peter Redgrove's Who's Your Daddy?, and feel free to read along with us as we dissect poems with literally no cohesion at all!
