Storyteller’s Paths
The course consists of two games - for poets and for prose writers. In the first game, you will learn that without metaphors, our world view falls apart and will learn how to use metaphors by trying your hand at writing Chinese poetry. By assuming a role of a hero/heroine in a romantic story that unfolds in the second game, you will learn how to best structure a narrative and keep your story under control.
Being A Medieval Chinese
Metaphor was the basis of the medieval Chinese literature and philosophy. Become a master of metaphor, an essential writer’s skill, by experiencing life as a medieval Chinese. Getting acquainted with Zen Buddhism comes as a bonus.
When You’ll See Me
You get to play with a story structure. When two people meet, there are two stories to be told, not one. Get immersed in one person’s perspective and then get to finish the story from the other’s point of view. You also get to decide how it all started and ended...
