The Rise Series: three ways to juice up your writing life!
Just one hour each Tuesday morning, from the comfort of wherever you are. Totally donation-based, pay-what-you will every time. Over three consecutive Tuesday mornings, get yourself writing, revising, and sending out work for publication!
Rise & Write – discussion of a published poem + guided generative writing time (upcoming sessions: May 21 and June 18)
Rise & Revise – revision practice using sample poem + your own (upcoming sessions May 28 and June 25)
Rise & Shine – tips and practices for getting published, resource sharing + submission work (upcoming sessions June 4 and July 2)
Each session happens over Zoom and runs from 9 to 10 a.m. central time.
Write your heart out.
Through this generative writing workshop, you'll discover new writing techniques, explore new imaginative territory, and connect with like-minded and differently-minded writers.
Whether you're a seasoned writer or brand new to the craft, Rise & Write is right for you. While the sessions are centered on poetry, the writing prompt is designed to fit any style or genre of writing and launch you into the writing process -- whether that produces a poem, an essay, a story, or an undiscovered form is between you and the page!
We start with discussion of a published poem to get our minds awakened and creative juices juicing, then move into a guided exploratory writing prompt. To get a sense of what these prompts are like, pop on over to this link and scroll to the bottom of the page where a whole packet of them lives.

The workshops are completed donation-based. Truly do not let cost be the barrier, I'd love to Rise and Write with you.

A playground for poems.
Revision doesn’t have to be painful! This is a space free of judgment and jargon where our goal is to break open our poems to new worlds of possibility, and have fun doing it in the company of other poet-explorers. Appropriate for seasoned writer-editors and those new to the game alike!
In this workshop, we practice playful, exploratory revision techniques on a sample poem to get started, then apply them to poems of our own.

These workshops are completed donation-based. Truly do not let cost be the barrier, I'd love to Rise and Revise with you.

Get your poems some shine.
Getting published doesn’t have to be a drag! Whether you’ve had dozens of poems appear in print or are seeking that elusive first publication, Rise & Shine offers the chance to commiserate, share resources, explore new or time-tested approaches to getting published, and have some company while you work at getting your work out into the world.

These workshops are completed donation-based; suggested minimum contribution is $15 (poets gotta pay rent too!), but you can pay as little as $1 to register. Truly do not let cost be the barrier, I'd love to Rise and Shine with you.
