About the Offering

Perhaps you have a poem you can’t get off the ground, a poem that bugs you, annoys you, drives you mad because you can’t figure out how to revise it. This 4-week workshop explores ways to begin revising poems that have been driving you crazy for months or for years. To get unstuck, I’ll provide exercises and generous comments on one poem per week. Your peers will also provide suggestions, some of which are based on a series of questions I’ve provided. This class is a fast-paced workshop designed to jump-start your revision process. The only pre-requisite is a desire to change your poems.
