Explore one of the most brain-tickling creative writing experiences, writing poetry. With the simple steps and in-class exercises we’ll cover together, you’ll be surprised at how you can master this art and will find that it is not as intimidating as it may seem. We’ll experiment with various styles of poetry and demystify poetic jargon and rules. As an incredibly imaginative process, the art of writing poetry sharpens every aspect of your creative writing tool set from inventing out-of-the-box symbolism and metaphors to conjuring evocative images and crisp description, valuable benefits for fic- tion and non-fiction writers, too. Applying some of the techniques learned from writing poetry will make every writer a better writer.
