We had 104 WriteGirl mentees and 73 volunteers spend six hours learning how to craft creative non-fiction pieces evocative of one thing: the truth. With help from prompts (i.e. Describe your mood using weather as a metaphor), the beautiful grounds of The Huntington, and saccharine hot chocolate to keep us warm, our muse became anything we wanted to “collect” and store in our journals.

Author of The Path to Creativity and prolific guest speaker Charity Hume helped us on this mission teaching us how to “Zoom In,” to render every spotted detail into a piece rich with sensory details. Even something as simple as a grain of sand can be spectacular up close, once you simply take the time to look.
