Color is not simply a descriptor for something else. It has and can even be its own character: with weight, temperature, sound, taste.
Through guided exercises, discussion, and dedicated solo writing sessions, we will push beyond color as descriptor into character. We will practice cross-sensory writing and opening our senses to the chromatic saturation and desaturation of urban environments, e.g., neon, fluorescence, grit, dim alleys.
This creative writing studio is led by Brian Wood-Koiwa, co-founder of Urban Writing Haus creative writing studios; author of the UrbanWeird serial novels Flowers Wilt, Weeds Thrive and Conspiracy of False Citizens; and literary and technical editor and coach. He is also a photo walk guide here in Tokyo. urbanweird.com
