2023 Summer Workshops

This workshop is primarily generative – although we will also discuss work as it is brought to the table. We will read a great many published poems and, inspired by them, use the perceived forms to create portals and pathways to new work. Each writer need only bring a desire to experiment, old work that she is willing to alter, and some published poems she loves.
As this workshop fills quickly with a long wait list, Marie has requested that students who have taken her workshop within the past five years (2013-2017) refrain from registering so that new students may have the opportunity to work with her. Thank you.
