<li>Lead with some haiku</li>
<li>Go into what a haiku is (not just 5-7-5)</li>
<li>Exercise 1:<ul>
<li>Show some images</li>
<li>Attendees should pick two things they notice from each image, aim for a bit of contrast</li>
<li>Write those two things on two lines, as much as they want</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Images and sensations vs metaphor</li>
<li>Haiku as minimalist evocation of sensations using only images</li>
<li>More appropriate structure:<ul>
<li>About 12 stressed syllables</li>
<li>Two images</li>
<li>Can include a volta, often relating to seasonal imagery</li>
<li>Minimal language usage</li>
<li>Concrete evocation</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Exercise 2:<ul>
<li>Turn those two images into a haiku</li>
<li>Remember, doesn&rsquo;t need to be 5-7-5, though don&rsquo;t let that stop you</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Evocation in fiction</li>
<li>When to use metaphor, when to use concrete evocation</li>
<li>Utility of surprise</li>
<li>Exercise 3:<ul>
<li>Leading with your haiku, write a short (&lt;500) word scene in prose that turns this into a story</li>
<li>Try to evoke the same sensations/moods that the haiku did</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>What can fiction lend to haiku?</li>
<li>Characters (in the loosest sense) within images</li>
<li>Directionality between two images, maintaining tension within haiku form</li>
<li>Exercise 4 (if there&rsquo;s time):<ul>
<li>Take two images from your scene and turn them into a haiku</li>
<li>Pay attention to what you gain and what you lose in terms of sensations</li>
<li>What can you bring back to fiction?</li>
<li>Suggest that you can start this series of exercises in the other direction (fiction -&gt; haiku -&gt; fiction) too</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Conclusion</li>
