I once shared a creative writing course with a chap who wrote instruction manuals and, if I remember right, had turned his to science fiction. I learned loads from trying to explain to him what was missing. I write poetry and my challenge has always been to switch the poet off or risk giving a reader a migraine. Instead, as you suggest, I try lean more on mannerisms, dialogue and less is more, but it certainly isn't easy. suzi quaifhttp://www.suziquaif.co.uk/noreply@blogger.com
