Self-Editing Poetry: Demystifying How to Strengthen Your Own Poems

Self-Editing Poetry: Demystifying How to Strengthen Your Own Poems (starting at $79)

Reading poetry can be intimidating, writing poetry can be frustrating, and editing your own poetry can feel impossible. In this workshop, we will demystify and practice the steps and techniques of self-editing poetry. Included with the class are edits and feedback on up to two pages of poems by the instructor. Poems must be submitted at or before one week prior to the class start date.
