Refection on Toni Morrison Documentary
In this exercise, you’ll practice writing with sensory detail through preparing a meal. Inspired by Toni Morrison’s belief that creation is a calling, explore cooking as expression. Don’t just say what you cooked; capture the full experience: how you felt before you began, what you saw, heard, smelled, touched, and tasted. What lingered as you served or ate?
This practice will help you slow down, notice details, and convey emotion through everyday moments — a hallmark of powerful storytelling.
