Poetry Writing Workshops

Poetry can be an important companion and friend, but if you’ve ever treated a poem as an intellectual challenge… I would love to explore a different approach with you. One that includes you and your sensorial experience of language.

Upcoming 8-Week Workshops

Workshops are limited to 6 participants.
I offer a free intro workshop at the start of every new session.

Testimonials

“I’ve written poetry in the past, and occasionally published a few bits but not for a long while. Within a very short time the poetry writing block I’d experienced for years was GONE and the words were just pouring out of me. The multiple choice of prompts, Christine’s enthusiastic encouragement and the wide variety of “voices” among the students all combined to give a huge boost to my creativity!”

~ Carol McGrath, Herbalist (workshop participant)
