Too Many Bunnies

July 18, 2021 9 Comments

By Ryker Hayes

It was Easter and my town was overflowing with bunnies. Chocolate bunnies. Marshmallow bunnies. Sticker bunnies. Toy bunnies. To my surprise, the local store was selling bunnies. Two for one. They were too cute and I had to have them. I couldn’t tell their genders, but the teenage employee promised the cage was all male. I took a black one and a brown one. I named them George and Martin. They fought all night! I couldn’t sleep! So I moved their pen to the lounge for peace and quiet. Peace at last, until… Would you like a bunny? I have twenty.

The Power of Imagery with Nina Schuyler

September 12 & 13 on Zoom
Enrollment closes Thursday, September 3 at 7:00 PM Pacific

If your descriptions are vivid but your stories still feel thin, this workshop is for you.

Join award-winning author Nina Schuyler to learn the difference between description, which tells a reader what things look like, and imagery, which carries plot, character, and meaning at the same time.

In just two days, you'll learn to choose images that hold emotion without naming it, pair them so each one deepens the other, and build patterns that gather meaning as the story moves.

    All male bunnies grow into twenty. A gentle satire.
