Karen Green has supplied us with some evocative personal writing to reflect on, chronicling her experience of grief over losing the most important person in her life.
Perhaps you’ve never lost a family member or loved one in the same way, but you’ve no doubt had experiences that have deeply impacted you, and been formative in making you who you are today.
In a 500 word entry, write about a particularly poignant, epiphanic, comedic, or overall educational episode from your life that has been formative and instructional to how you’ve lived and thought since. Taking some notes from Karen Green, aim to include some kind of metaphorical elements in your work, as she does in her treatment of birds and gardening. In this piece, feel free to use poetic license, writing in any style or form you choose that best represents your experience. Aim to employ the golden rule of storytelling: show, don’t tell.
