About the Offering

ASYNCHRONOUS

This workshop will focus on found texts to guide our minds into discovering new phrases of language we normally wouldn’t use in a poem. A writer’s toolbox is vast!. This workshop is inspired by some of the “At Home,” New York Times pieces I created during the Pandemic, where I urged readers to use the newspaper to find language in articles, headlines and bylines, to create Centos, found poems and Golden Shovel poems. Inspiration can be anywhere; sometimes, we just need a jolt!
