POETRY WRITING WORKSHOP
The focus will be on your poems. If you are 
a practicing poet and want to share your writing 
with other poets and get constructive comments, 
you will fit right in. It is only a four week class but in setting aside four weeks for writing, there is a genuine opportunity for you to advance your poetry.





This class follows the workshop pattern that is found at universities throughout the country. Beginning the first meeting, and each week you will bring copies of one of your poems to be read, share, and discuss.  There will be instruction as we discuss your writing but no lecture. At the last meeting, the  publication process will be discussed, and a list of markets will be given.
