Freeman Ng, "Poetry Pro-Am: Writing Poems with the Poets" (2:00 - 2:45)
We'll write poems inspired by the poetry of well-known poets, aided by suggestions that will make this a comfortable exercise even for non-writers. Bring paper and pens or a device to write on.
Dralandra Larkins, “Before I Lie: Writing What We’re Afraid to Say Out Loud” (2:45 - 3:30)
This workshop invites participants to write bold, honest poems that challenge silence and speak from the body, the archive, and the soul. Through guided prompts and optional oracle exercises, we’ll explore how truth-telling can be both a personal act and a communal offering.
Janna Knittel, “Love Poems that Rock, Love Poems with Bite” (3:30 - 4:15)
People have been writing love poems for so long that it feels like everything has already been said about love, but you can still shock, startle, and surprise readers if you swap cliches for specific and unexpected details. Bring paper and pens or a device to write on.
