Writing Workshop: Writing To Be Heard

Most of us hope that our words will be received by a reader or audience with impact and intention. That our poetry will convey the rhythms of our heart, the music we hear in the inner ear.

This workshop takes participants through a series of discussions and exercises on how to:

write for the “ear”,
use rhythm and sound to enhance meaning;
and edit with the reader / audience in mind.
