If I write, the dark shadows move away from my desk." ~ Donald Murray
“Those who are willing to be vulnerable move among mysteries.” ~ Theodore Roethke
Here’s a workshop that can flow with the longer rhythms of your writing. A Sunday afternoon for five months, we’ll gather and share poems in a comfortable but focused fashion. You choose the poem to share based on what feedback you are looking for; the poems could range from one you want ready to submit for publication, to an experimental piece that needs a supportive but critical eye, and any type of draft in-between. Along the way we’ll talk about craft and how to establish and sustain a fulfilling practice with playful tricks, deep reading, and the company of fellow poets. Come ready to share your poems and insights and to carry generous feedback home to your writing desk.
