About the Offering

LIVE via ZOOM: 6pm-8pm (Eastern Time)

We often take our skills for granted—and in doing so, fall into predictable patterns. This five day Zoom workshop will focus on poetry composition from the ground up: diction, syntax, address, lineation, even rhyme (maybe) to just bring a bit more sparkle to the polish of your poems. We will read contemporary poets, do in-class writing. The aim is joy in the making.
