The Oxford Dictionary defines metaphor as a figure of speech that directly refers to one thing by mentioning another. It can provide clarity or identify hidden similarities between two different ideas. Websters's Collegiate Dictionary defines metaphor as The application of a word or phrase to an object or concept it does not literally denote, suggesting comparison to that object or concept. The creative use of words is a craft, and as writers mature in their craft, those who learn the best use of words find their works becoming ever more popular among readers or listeners who appreciate the mental images these words create. Metaphors give color to your words. You can recognize the better authors by their use of metaphors. By examining what they create, you too can create words that are more descriptive and interesting. Everyone wins when your words come alive in the minds of your audience or individual reader or listener.. This book provides almost 1,000 metaphors to help make your own writing more interesting and memorable.
