The Rural Setting Thesaurus has sensory descriptions for over 100 settings and plenty of how-to help on using figurative language to create vivid imagery and symbolic meaning. It also includes lessons on using the setting to steer plot, provide conflict through story-specific challenges, and influence emotions through mood.
Add deeper authenticity to your writing by bringing fiction and the real world together through common personal and natural places. Here are the locations included in The Rural Setting Thesaurus:
