Something I love about this service...so much to learn. I recently had the chance to join in an Interpretive Writing Workshop. It was actually helpful in terms of grant-writing and proposals in general! Here is a sample of what the instructor had us write to begin the session and use words creatively.
"Dancing dandelions
Dissipate diverse drek
Lo and behold
What do you know,
Words become verbs
And inspire a literal
Transformation
Inclination
Inspiration
The folly and flirtatious fun
Of precarious and carnivorous
Punctuation."
Not until I engaged in this workshop on Interpretive Writing did I realize the amount of time I have spent writing for my service. At this point, I could finally begin to conceptualize the power of each word I present. Intentional use of every phrase will make my aspirations and objectives clearer, more concise and therefore more likely to happen. Consequently, this learning experience I expect will provide a very positive product in this, my second year of service as a VISTA.
