A2: Book Festival

On her blog, Chloe Yelena Miller writes about the May 14-15 Ann Arbor Book Festival, where she was a presenter at the writer’s conference. She describes several sessions that she attended, including one by poet and author Rachel McKibbens: “As homework, she suggested that we create our own word banks for writing by listing 100 words that describe or represent a list of words related to a subject. A challenge that will surely break traditional connections between words and ideas! I encourage you to try them out and open the many doors in your long hallway of your mind, as she described our thoughts.” [Source]
