Writing for the Senses

How do you write for the five senses and how do you use these techniques to forward the story? It’s not enough to simply draw from the sounds, feelings and tastes around you — the real magic happens when your writing exposes a truth about your subject or environment. This webinar with Omar Mouallem will ultimately explain how and why you should provide your reader with a well-rounded sensory experience.

Omar Mouallem is an Edmonton-based writer and editor who has contributed to the Globe and Mail, Eighteen Bridges, enRoute and South China Morning Post. The former Avenue magazine editor is a National Magazine Awards finalist, winner of a Sex-Positive Journalism Award and recipient of multiple Alberta Magazine Awards.
