Revision as a Creative Act Poetry Workshop *Online*

Where we enter poetry is rarely where we end up staying, so it’s time to take it to the next level! In this course, we will spend the term creating and revising new work as we develop our most authentic voices. We will hone our craft by reading and studying a variety of poets, exposing ourselves to a wide range of styles and aesthetics to cultivate our emerging poetic identities best. This class focuses heavily on revision and how to revisit the initial creative impulse where our poems began. Instructor: Ralph Pennel
