2024 ADVANCE BOOKINGS
I would be delighted to prepare a workshop for your group, school or library anywhere in the metropolitan area in 2024. Please see the list below for possible topics, or you may wish to negotiate something that is of particular interest to your group. Further details would be made available to you upon your enquiry. In the first instance, please e-mail me via this website regarding your requirements and possible dates and I will call you as soon as possible to talk it through. From experience, I would recommend the workshops be at least 90 minutes long. You may book multiple sessions for multiple classes. A full day allows a class to learn about the forms and devices we use in poetry and gives them time to apply that learning.
POSSIBLE TOPICS
Provocative and Protest Poetry
Haiku and Cinquain
Extended Metaphor Poems
Colour Symbolism
Fantastic Ekphrastic!
Increasing Intensity in Poetry
What gives Poetry its Power?
Taking Poetry from Personal to Universal
Do you Need a Laugh?
The Poetry Process – From Catalyst to Conclusion
Lessons in Love
Poetry of the Heart, Mind, Body and Soul
These are merely ideas. You may have something your group wishes to particularly focus on. We can negotiate what suits you best that you feel would be of most benefit.
