About this course:
No poetic topic is more fundamental, or potentially cringe-inducing, than the love poem. In this 3-hour workshop, we’ll examine some of the best of the genre, from Chen Chen to Shakespeare, Danez Smith to Edna St Vincent Millay, to uncover what makes a love poem sing, and write our own. Incinerate cliches, invite specificity, and figure out how to be sincere in your writing without inviting an eye-roll.Contact Us
