Description
Description
An ingenious writing tool and poetry prompt generator that helps writers of all levels think and write for figuratively based on the understanding that a metaphor is simply an equation between an idea and an object (with perhaps an adjective thrown in as a variable). The brainchild of poet & educator Taylor Mali (''What Teachers Make''), Metaphor Dice allow the user to ''write backwards'' by presenting thousands of metaphors to see if any seem worth a few minutes of exploration.
