Writing Poetry                                                             Jane Shore

“All art is autobiography. The pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.”  -  Federico Fellini                                                                 

Come and take part in a week-long poetry workshop! To register, you do not need academic qualifications or publications. The class will include writing exercises, and inducements to revise, in addition to some reading, but will mainly be a roundtable critique of work submitted by class members. You may bring a selection of poems you’ve already written or begin brand-new projects based on the workshop’s handouts, prompts, and in-class exercises.

Recommended paperbacks to bring with you:

   The Vintage Book of Contemporary American Poetry, edited by J.D. McClatchy, Vintage

    I Remember, by Joe Brainard, Granary Books
