Writing and Illustrating‏ From: noreply+feedproxy@google.com on behalf of Writing and Illustrating (kathy.temean@hotmail.com) Sent: Thu 1/28/10 10:23 AM To: little_women_2002@hotmail.com Writing and Illustrating —————————————————————————— 200 Word Descriptive Hair List Posted: 27 Jan 2010 09:16 PM PST

Last year I put together a list of descriptive words for food. This year I thought a descriptive list for hair might help you when starting to describe your characters. I included colors, and words of items that adorn the hair. There must be more words, so let’s work together on this. Please leave new words to add in the comment’s section. Thanks!

My Favorites:

I love the children's movies Wizard of Oz and the Neverending Story. Both movies make me feel the lesson that hope is alive and well. After seeing UP this past week, it just might have a chance at being added to this list.

I love the cool colors of blues and purples.Those colors are peaceful for me.

I love The Velveteen Rabbit. Even as an adult, I still feel the urge to cry when he becomes real. I know, silly, but a good book can make me laugh and cry as it takes me on a magical journey.
