It's Elemental: The Art of Revision

$99.00

Water, fire, earth, air: each of these elements has characteristics that we can apply to our poems to engage the senses. This four-module self-paced workshop takes as its premise that the best poetry happens when it works with/invokes one or more of these basic elements. Through this lens, and accompanied by concrete exercises and craft techniques recommended by such poetic masters as Stephen Dunn, Annie Finch, Ted Kooser, and Muriel Rukeyser, you will watch your works-in-progress mature to their full potential.

Shortly after you Add to Cart, you will receive an email containing an invitation to create an account and begin learning. Note: This class does not include feedback or interaction with the instructor or other learners, and is accessible for thirty days. If more time is needed, just contact us.
