Ask a Poet with Rick Barot
Join poet Rick Barot for a free one-hour writing Q&A. Rick will offer some of his expert tips, tricks, and advice on the art and craft of writing poetry—things he’s honed over the publication of his books. Come to the call with questions about your work-in-progress or for ideas about how to get started.
Registration is limited, so RSVP at the “Tickets” link today. If you RSVP but cannot make the event, please notify our registrar at lily@hugohouse.org so we can open that space to another participant.
