MAY DAY SPECIAL!
April 27th through May 18th
Registration Now Open!Word on the street is that this four-week seminar helps.
Let's do it together.
In some ways, you are the places where you've been in your life. Experience is carried in our bodies, and our best poetry creates a uniquely poetic experience that moves readers.
In this craft seminar, we'll work together to identify how our poems do what they do to our bodies and minds.
Bring your poems and let's dig in to examine the poem's voice.
We'll turn poems like glass in a window to find their shifting light.
We'll spend four weeks working to see – and create – our work anew.
While there is no workshop component to this class, there will be weekly opportunities to share your work and interact with other participants.
POETRY IN PROVINCETOWN!

I'm proud to have my po-essay, "Overheard,' included in this newest addition to the Living and Sustaining a Creative Life series of books, edited by Sharon Louden, Artists as Writers (eds. Steven G. Fullwood & Seph Rodney) which offers first-person narratives that explore the day-to-day lives of individuals who use writing as both a creative practice and a means of sustaining their daily lives.
