MAKING A POEM: A 6-WEEK ONLINE COURSE

Writing Slant | Making a Poem is a new online course designed to help you take first drafts - or poems that have become stuck - and hone them until they sing!

Each week we will look at a key element of a poem and examine a ‘touchstone’ poem that encapsulates that theme, along with additional texts to unlock these ideas and put them to use in your own work.

The course will give you a series of tools to explore and expand your work, along with a better understanding of what you want to say in your poetry and how to say it.

Each week, the topic and exercises will be introduced and discussed during the live session on Zoom. To access the weekly lessons and exercises, plus the support materials, please click on the relevant image below.
