About the Offering
This five day course has been designed to take your poems to the next level. Our online discussion will provide tools to help you connect more fully with the sources of your poems, bring new life to old drafts, and write more vivacious lines and sentences. With the help of time-proven prompts, each student will write five new poems. We’ll pay attention to each student’s specific strengths, as well as opportunities for growth. At the end of the course, you’ll have a chance to meet with the instructor over video-conference or phone.
