Stepping Out to Write Your Way In - A Generative Poetry Workshop
Taught by Amanda Rabaduex
This six-week generative poetry workshop invites you to step outside your usual point of view so you can see language, thoughts, nature, emotion, and even yourself with fresh eyes. Using concepts from ethnography, we’ll practice looking at our lives from the “outside,” then write back in, turning close observation into word-play. We'll also cover some literary devices and forms as part of our exploration. You’ll write during class, share if you wish, and have optional out-of-class prompts and activities to expand your writing world into your everyday life. The workshop welcomes poets of all levels, from beginners to advanced. Participants also get a personal critique of one poem of their choice at the end of the course.
