Testimonials
I was challenged, encouraged, and revitalized! It was all I could've hoped for and more!
I came into the workshop really nervous that I wouldn't be able to keep up or be able to produce anything. [It] helped me (re)navigate why I'm doing this and helped rekindle a love for reading poetry.​​
I would definitely recommend this workshop to poets who are further in their career as poets. This workshop is definitely not for poets who "dabble" in the art. I truly appreciate the more advanced approach in the workshop.
No matter what level you think you are in poetry, you will walk away with a wealth of information and invaluable connections.
It was a huge learning opportunity because the host, Geoff, was very knowledgeable in both poetry and the business aspect of being a poet.
