Day 3 – Wednesday: Use a Metaphor in a blog post

Ready to create your own metaphor?

Your action points for today:

  • Download your metaphor cheatsheet (see below)
  • Find a point in your blog post that you want to stress, or an abstract concept or idea your reader might not understand
  • Get away from your computer
  • Choose a broad area to focus your creativity (parenting, sports, animals, hobbies, cooking are all great topics for metaphors)
  • Play around to find connections
  • Choose your favorite metaphor
  • Write and edit the relevant section in your blog post and post it in the forums

If you get stuck, have another look at the video, the short examples from Monday, or post your questions in the forum. We’re only writing one short metaphor – not a whole post outline (that’s for tomorrow). Remember to relax and have fun.
