Welcome back to Creative Constraints Club. Week four is a world of COLOUR.
Mum says she’s felt blue since Dad passed. Sitting in her garden, she pointed out a “soft-pink” rose. I asked what mood “soft pink” might represent. She thought: “Calm and gentle hope.” Such poetry from someone who says she’s not creative.
Blue is sad, yellow is happy. These are obvious pairings of colour and mood. But what about less obvious hues? Let’s get their mood from their point of view.
TODAY’S CREATIVE CONSTRAINT
SKILLS YOU’LL BOOST
Finding a new perspective
Writing to be heard
Avoiding cliché
Boost these skills and emotion will seep into your writing. You’ll become aware of how your words sound to others, which will help bring empathy to how you write.
Happy writing
