Upcoming classes & offerings:
Muse as Dryad: Poems from the Woods
October 25 - December 19 (8 weeks) This course is asynchronous. Our weeks in this class run from WEDNESDAY to TUESDAY with lessons posting on Wednesday mornings.
This course uses Old Growth: The Best Writing About Trees from Orion as part of its reading assignments each week. Please plan to have your own copy before we begin.
In this class we’ll write poems from the lungs of the earth, each week approaching trees from a different angle. We'll consider their science, and explore forest folklore and fairy tales. We'll end in contemplative eco-poetry and with celebration. Each week you’ll read 2-3 source texts. You’ll write new poems born out of a prompt linked to that week’s topic. Every week will also include optional viewing/listening assignments to provide multiple entry points into inspiration.
*This course also is offered at multiple tiers - individual, writing groups and with full instructor feedback.
