UPCOMING SHORT COURSES
BOOK NOW
Journeys (NEW)
This three-week course will be looking at Journeys and how they can inform all aspects of poetry. From actual journeys to new places, through embodying journey as a metaphor to engaging with the journey through life. There are many ways to approach this, and we will be looking at many of those and seeing how the ideas can be used in our poems. The course will be conducted online over three weeks, at a cost of £30 – https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=B2MNJRGF89RJ8
Every month we have many short courses that take place over three weeks. These cover many subjects in poetry from Ekphrastic Poetry to poetry in Times of Change. There is something for everyone and we are adding to our course availability each month. In addition each summer we have our Summer School and in December the December Poetry Workshop.
