LIVE  via ZOOM: 1pm-3pm EST.

In this class, we will explore strategies by which poets may enrich their own art by deliberately imitating their favorites… and their favorites’ favorites! We will discuss such topics as voice, influence, and originality, as well as the imperative of serving a serious apprenticeship. Participants should bring to this workshop either a few passages from their one favorite writer, or one passage each from a few of their favorite writers.
