The Stuff of Poetry
This workshop will focus on creativity, originality, and imagery, answering the questions, "Where do we find the stuff for poetry?" "How do we know what to include?" and "How do we make it good?"
Participants should bring an object of "value" (something kept for years) with them, expect to generate several new ideas for writing, and expect to have their comfort zones challenged.

I wish I could have taken Scott's workshop. I always learn a lot when I study under him. I'm sure it was a wonderful class. Maybe next time Scott comes to Writer's Circle, I will be able to take his class.
