SESSION #5 / WEDS 5 NOV / YOUR INNER ANIMAL
Since the dawn of time, humans have pretended to be animals, the spirit of the lion, the sleepiness of the bear, the joy of the otter, the mischief of the monkey. When we write from the perspective of another animal we are exaggerating personality traits, enlarging the minutia of simple feelings and allowing for the wonders of magical realism.
