Poetry for the People (Poetry for the People)

"I was skeptical that I could find any space on my manic to do list for poetry. But Sage helped me see all the poetry around me--just waiting to find its place on the page." -- Amie H. Have you always wanted to write a poem but didn't know how to begin? Maybe you're already writing poetry and want to connect with your muse more often, or brush up on your poetic prowess? Poetry for the People takes poetry off of its academic pedestal, making it accessible to and enjoyable for everyone. In this six-week class, weekly lessons will include a mix of inspiration, craft tips, exercises and publication ideas. You'll be inspired (but not required) to write a poem a day! "I know it isn't easy to teach--and I suspect that it's pretty difficult to teach poetry, in particular. Sage Cohen just makes it look easy! She's knowledgeable, approachable, and has an uncommonly useful way of commenting on the poems her students submit." -- Erika D.
