Verbalize: bring stories to life & life to stories by Damon Suede

5.0

For all that English is my first language, and I know a fair amount of German, I've never been a fan of grammar. There are so many teams and rules to keep track of, it's been easier to learn and practice through context. As a writer I knew I was leaving powerful tools on the table, but I just couldn't figure out how to use them. I'm still not sure what a predicate is, but Damon Suede's Verbalize has given me a new excitement for verbs. He offers excellent examples and thought provoking exercises that had me reaching for a thesaurus for the first time in years. I feel empowered to bring more dynamic creativity to my stories. For the first time I feel like I have strong skills I can turn to when I'm feeling stuck.
