  • 3:20 /Sequences / Enhancement series May 11, 2022
    We're going from A to Z this week, as we discuss Sequences, the last of the Enhancement series. Climbing higher and higher = foothills, ridges, mountains. Getting worse and worse = aged, ancient, decrepit. Listen up to discover ways to sequence, progress / regress, ascend / descend, and create clever jumps in meaning. 1:10 opening […]

  • 3:19 / Opposites part 2 / Enhancements series May 4, 2022
    “I always lie.” There’s a conundrum for you. If we tell people that we’re lying—are we lying or telling the truth? Yes? No? Difficult to tell, isn’t it? The opposites in this week’s episode offers 3 types that can quickly entangle us. If you’ve ever been mixed up about paradox, irony, or satire, this episode […]

  • 3:18 / Opposites part 1 / Enhancement series April 27, 2022
    Opposites / Dichotomies are the foundation for all ideas. The positive / negative synergy develops concepts for finance and commerce, business and manufacturing, science and tech, fiction and nonfiction, art static and art dramatic. The world also has its triads and quarternaries ~ past / present / future and earth / air / water / […]

  • 3:17 / Repetition pt. 2 / Enhancements series April 20, 2022
    Repetition. We focused on simple repetition in the previous episode, from the riding, riding, riding of “The Highwayman” up to the old inn door to the clever use of incremental repetition, with “I’ve looked at cloud … and love … and life” in Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now”, and to alliteration of “streaming rain, blinding […]

  • 3:16 / Repetition pt. 1 / Enhancements series April 13, 2022
    “Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow / Creeps in this petty pace from day to day.” Why are we quoting the famous Macbeth speech by Shakespeare? It has two separate types of repetition. The 1st type is simple repetition with two instances. The 2nd type is a repetition of opening sounds. In this episode we’re also […]

  • 3:15 / Inversions / Enhancements J April 6, 2022
    “Always in motion is the future.” Do you recognize that quotation? You may be able to because the words are out of natural order. It’s Yoda! No, we’re not going to talk about Yoda and the Star Wars franchise or laser swords. Our focus for this episode is Words Out of Natural Order. That happens […]

  • 3:14 / Allegory part 2 / Enhancements I March 31, 2022
    Mystical wanderer. Dark desert highway. A ragged prince who turns into a toad. The beast of fame that cannot be killed. Recognize these images? Yep, it’s Carole King’s “Tapestry”, a riddling allegory that questions more than it answers, and “Hotel California” by the Eagers, another allegory of Fame and the goddess Fortuna. “Hotel California” has […]

  • 3:13 / Allegory part 1 / Enhancements H March 23, 2022
    Ever heard a story, and just know, know that something extra is also part of the story? Not hidden bits and pieces but a whole narrative? A top story is running along, but another story runs underneath the surface, occasionally poking up the periscope for a look around before re-submerging so it can run silent, […]

  • 3:12 / Archetype and Allusion / Enhancements G March 16, 2022
    Last episode I had a major oopsie. Almost finished recording three tools (imagery / archetype / allusion) for our Enhancement Writer’s Toolbox, and I realized the recording had approached 40 minutes. Quelle surprise! Now I stumble over words and pause and take long breaths, but I know—know—that I wouldn’t have enough errors to lose 20 […]
