Sean Singer Line-by-Line Poetry October 14 to November 8, 2024 Number of Participants: 15 Price: $650.00 Format: 4 Week Asynchronous Workshop

ASYNCHRONOUS

I will guide students in a close reading of 4 existing poem drafts—giving careful attention to line-by-line edits. Students will generate one new poem a week based on a prompt inspired by the workshop work. Close, creative reading will bring the most meaning and most beauty to your poems in progress. I will supply readings to show precedent.

All writing levels welcome.
