Write Deliciously: Elements of Beautiful Prose

How do we write prose that is satisfying beyond just its meaning, that feels good to read? In this lecture we will break down what makes beautiful prose, how to be intentional with the way we write to convey feeling and create effective imagery, and engage in a writing exercise that takes these elements into consideration.⁠
