Welcome Sibyl
Always good to have new visitors.
I can remember doing all this stuff at school but it didn’t mean anything back then – wish I’d paid more attention.
Hope you keep in touch.

Keith: Wow. What great information. This is a great post and something that should definitely be bookmarked and referenced. I think I had forgotten the real importance of some of those techniques. It has been way too long since my last grammar lesson Thanks again for the great info. Great post.

Hi Anna
Or should I say eBook Anna?
Similes and Metaphors are great tools for writers and speakers.
Take a look at Jean Sarauer’s site (first comment on this post) she uses some great Metaphors that really add to her posts.

BTW – you may have shamed me into starting that eBook.

Hi Ricardo
Great to have you back.
40 presentations! You must be looking like a pro.
Your point “a great emotional connection with your audience.” is what makes the difference between a good speech and a great speech.
If you can find that connection… the audience will never forget.

BTW – I’ll be over later to see what your latest post is all about.

Hi Keith,

Wow I really like this post and I think it’s important to incorporate this when writing as well, something that I need to start doing more of. I always like similes as they really make you think of what the image would really be in your mind. All of the content on your site would be great for an ebook. Will be looking out for one from you soon (hint hint)!

Keith: totally agree! the right images invoke a great emotional connection with your audience. Personally, I’ve been working on using better imagery in my presentations. I’ve given around ~40 presentations to date. I’d like to think that I’ve gotten better since my first one And I spend a lot of time practicing and reviewing the presentation’s of others to see how I could improve myself and do something better.

Still a work in progress but well on my way

Hi Evelyn
Glad I’ve simplified things.
I tend to remember that similes tell you that two things are similar – works for me.
Look forward to reading some of your new writing techniques on your blog.
Many thanks for your comment.

Wow….interesting lessons for me. Very timely for me because I have been hoping to make my writing more engaging after reading Joe Vitale’s book on Hypnotic Writing. You have made it simple for me to understand what the differences between similes, analogies and metaphors mean.
