REGISTRATION FOR THIS CLASS IS CLOSED. This class is already in session.
This course is for everyone who wants to read, discuss, and write poetry, whether you’ve written before, or not. Each class will be divided among workshopping participant poems, discussing the topic of the week from The Poetry Home Repair Manual, and examples of poetry. Writing prompts will be offered for in-class writing and optional sharing. We believe that writers learn best with both praise and friendly honesty in a nurturing setting of fellow learners. Requirements: An open mind, a sense of fun and discovery, and a readiness to read and write during and in-between the classes. Format includes discussion and hands-on.
REQUIRED BOOK: The Poetry Home Repair Manual, Ted Kooser, ISBN 0803259786
