Poetry Craft Workshop
BRAND NEW SECTION – BY POPULAR DEMAND with poet, short story writer, and award-winning novelist Donna Baier Stein
Mondays, October 5 – December 7, 7:30 – 9:30 PM – VIRTUAL
To write poetry is to articulate the world around you. To find new and more precise ways to describe what it means to be alive. Poetry Craft Workshop is a course designed to not only generate new poems, but to sharpen poetic craft with an eye toward publication and/or creating a strong, cohesive body of work. This workshop-heavy course is perfect for writers looking for a supportive and constructive environment in which to challenge themselves—to write, revise and workshop the poems they’ve always dreamed of creating.

FALL SPECIAL EVENTS:
September 27: What’s Up with KidLit?
Publishing Industry Experts Maria Russo, Carter Hasagawa, Kat Brzozowski on crafting stories for young readers
~virtual panel event~
From enchanting picture books to riveting young adult novels, books have the power to turn young people into lifelong readers. But children’s literature has also become a battleground in the culture wars, readership is in deep decline, and AI is everywhere. What is the state of children’s literature today? And what will make your story stand out from the crowd?
This panel features three industry professionals with comprehensive knowledge of the field. Our discussion will provide candid insights into the current children’s literary landscape, evolving children’s publishing trends, and provide practical tips for aspiring writers and insights for parents and educators into the unique challenges and opportunities of children’s publishing today.
If you want a clear understanding of how books make a difference, and how yours can stand out in a competitive field, join us.
