Everyone is terrified of the blank page. Perhaps we are even more scared of it now during the pandemic. What is there left to say? What is even worthy of a poem or my time or my focus? The idea of writing is often harder than the writing itself. In this 4-week course, we’ll focus on prompts and exercises that get us generating new poems out of nothing. Starting small and moving outward. This class won’t focus on critiques! I want this to be based on simply re-starting our engines and giving ourselves permission to write through unprecedented times.
