The Colors Of The Five Senses
Anne Bernays and Pamela Painter β What If? Writing Exercise for Fiction Writers prompts The Exercise β Using five different-colored highlighters, mark a text with a different color for each sense impression, e.g., blue for visual, red for auditory, green for taste, etc. Synaesthesia would, of course, be indicated by more than one color. Writers vary greatly in terms of the dominance of one sense or another. The goal, though, is to find passages using all five senses β then to write such passages. The Objective β To heighten awareness of the need for a full repertoire of sense evocations in good writing. Ideally, you should call forth all five senses as well as synaesthesia. The writer thereby evokes from the reader a full range of responses.

sometimes i feel so far from it all that i can hardly stand it; iβm drifting away from this place and all the parts of me that are known by another are mourning, dying, clutching at their necks, cursing themselves until they foam at the mouth
