WORKSHOP: Interior Dialogues: Poetry Workshops with Kerry Gilbert and Al Rempel

April 15, 2023 | 1:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Free – $10.00

Workshop with Kerry Gilbert:

“Good writing gives energy, whatever it is about.”—Marilyn Hacker
How can you make your writing more attractive to readers by paying close attention to energy? This workshop explores ideas around the core principles of energy, including movement/heat, leaps/gaps, energetic word choice, and the use of specifics. “Energy gives your writing power, drama, originality, and life. Energy is what makes your creative writing stand out from everyone else’s” (Heather Sellers). This will be a hands-on exploration, with some literary models to look at, and a lot of room for experimentation in your own writing during the workshop.

Workshop with Al Rempel:

What does zooming, spelunking, and tumbling have in common? Find out all the ways in Painting Powerful Images, a workshop that will focus on generating and tightening up your poetic imagery. You will be presented with a few tools and techniques you can take with you into your writing practice, and there will be time to try them out and ask questions during the workshop.
