In my last post, I mentioned The Emotion Thesaurus by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi. This little book proved so useful, I decided to Google the authors and find out more about them. Am I ever glad I did!
Ackerman and Puglisi host a blog called the Bookshelf Muse at http://thebookshelfmuse.blogspot.com/ . On this amazing blog, the authors post all kinds of writing helps, including a number of "Thesaurus" links. If you're not acquainted with The Emotion Thesaurus, you've got to visit the Bookshelf Muse! You'll come away with a totally different view of the term "thesaurus."
Listed in the right column are links to numerous Thesauruses on subjects like symbolism, character traits, weather and earthly phenomena, color, textures, shapes, and settings. Click on these links and step out of the "thesaurus box."
I did. And picked up a marvelous tool to assist in my quest to deepen POV.
What helps have you discovered recently? I'd love to hear from you.
