Poetry Writing Workshop- Finding Your Readers

Poetry Writing Workshop- Finding Your Readers at Morocco Bound Bookshop on Mon, Aug 24, 6:30 PM. Tickets from $11.33. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

Writing a poem is only the beginning. In this session we'll consider how editing, feedback and revision can help strengthen your work, while exploring ways to connect with readers through magazines, competitions, performances and publication. This popular workshop series invites you to explore a different poetic theme every fortnight. You’ll take inspiration from life, art, music, nature, the city & of course poetry – reading published work, responding to writing prompts, giving each other feedback and most importantly connecting with fellow poetic souls! Everyone should leave with the beginnings of one or two poems & plenty of inspiration to keep writing. **Rough schedule** 6:30-6:40pm: welcome, time to grab a drink 6:40-7:00pm: warm-up exercise & discussion 7:00-7:45pm: reading, discussing, writing 7:45-8:00pm: break 8:00-8:30pm: reading, discussing, writing 8:30-9:00pm: sharing, workshopping, editing *Ruth is a London-based poet & tutor originally from the West Midlands.
