like verbs, subverted verbs, etc. so I don't know what this style of writing is called but we did alot of it in class, maybe if anyone is reading this and you know what they're called you can leave a comment and let me know? (I never get comments so it would be double awesome! lol)
Aha! just this second it has come to me! METAPHORS! I found some interesting metaphors in a comic and wanted to put them on my blog! here they are:
"The streets are hardened arteries leading to the city's dead heart"
"Ignoring the queasiness which quakes my stomach like an uneasy swamp"
"I turn my collar up against the toothless gnawing of the early november wind"
"A steetlamp winks it's sickly, yellow eye as I pass"
Writing this reminds me of sin city, I didn't really realize it was full of metaphors at the time, I probably wouldn't have taken much notice of them, I just thought it was an odd way of speaking! lol even though I use them myself without noticing, but now I notice them all the time, but I think they work the best in comic books, especially detective type stories.
