Expression
Description: You are able to craft words in ways that evoke thoughts, emotions and reactions from those who read them. You can compose pleasing poetry in one or more styles, create short and long fiction, write essays, reviews and editorials, and invent advertising jingles. It is rare for one person to be skilled at more than one specialty at one time, so choose carefully.
- Novice: You can write a short poem and extemporize a limerick or couplet when the Muse is with you. A short story is not out of your reach.
- Practiced: You could publish your poetry or fiction in a local journal, or write basic hit parade lyrics. You can extemporize simple abab- and aabb-type quatrains.
- Competent: You could get your novel or anthologies of your work published and make a profit. You can extemporize more complex verse forms, and even make blank verse sound like poetry.
- Expert: You are asked to do readings of your work for local societies nationwide, and aficionados snap up your works as soon as they are published. You can write lyrics that people will be quoting in 10 years, and extemporize iambic pentameters without thinking about it.
- Master: Your work is already being taught in English classes, and you are recognized as one of the foremost writers of your day. Your lyrics are timeless, and you can extemporize in any form and any style.
