About the Workshop
Stuck on a poem that just isn’t… working? You’ve tried to revise it, but nothing seems to be doing the trick? Join me for Poetry Re-Play, the revision workshop that gives you permission to act your shoe size and invoke your inner child to use puzzles, games, and make-believe to look at your poem with new eyes. Participants will leave the workshop with new inspiration and new ideas for approaching the revision process. Bring a poem draft that you feel needs more work.
