Poetry II
Genres: Poetry
Online
Intermediate
8 Sessions
Poetry II will add to your growing skill set in a supportive workshop environment. We'll learn by closely reading and responding to mentor texts as well as each other's poems, and practice the art of revision so that you can continue to hone your work beyond the bounds of the classroom.
This class builds upon Poetry I, though Poetry I is not a prerequisite. We encourage students to opt into classes at the level that is right for them.
