Join us for our next *free* workshop on June 16, from 6:30-8:30pm at Parleaux Beer Lab! Erin Little will teach her workshop, Poets on Place, focused on the unique ways poetry can capture setting that other compositional modes cannot.How do poems convey setting? How do poets capture "place" in ways distinct from other compositional modes? If the poet is the professor of the five senses (Federico Garcia Lorca), how does the poet use sensory language to evoke specific places? How can we trace related subtext like social commentary in poems about place? This course invites you to investigate various academic and poetic texts with these questions in mind.
Erin Little is a writer and editor from Dallas, Texas. She graduated with an MFA in Creative Writing from LSU in May 2024. She is the former editor-in-chief of New Delta Review and the former associate director of the Delta Mouth Literary Festival. Her poems and essays have appeared in Crab Creek Review, Prelude, New Orleans Review, Juxtaprose and others. Her debut poetry collection Personal Injury won the 2023 Chestnut Review chapbook contest and is available now.
Book Banter Books will be onsite, so come by for good drinks, books, and community!
