No More Excuses: Submission Bootcamp with Lyzette Wanzer

Online via Zoom

Are you on the verge of submitting your writing for publication, but are you too nervous or afraid to follow through? Have you submitted your work, just for it to end up in the rejection pile? Or does submitting your work keep falling to the bottom of your to-do list?

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to plan a submission strategy, research publishing markets, and identify the publications most aligned with your work. We will also review proper submission etiquette and protocols plus suggestions for avoiding pitfalls that mark you as an amateur before editors even read your submission.

Wellness for Writers with Jen Knox

Online via Zoom

In this two-session workshop, we will combine writing and wellness practices to help writers develop a more mindful approach to their work. We’ll use meditation to tap creativity, explore the connection between self-compassion and craft, and look at how to mine raw personal material in a safe but effective way. By the end of this workshop, we’ll put these techniques into practice in order to write with momentum and heart, then revise with craft and focus. This course is open to writers of all genres, backgrounds, and skill level, 18+ who write on a regular basis.

Exploring Your Cultural Inheritance through Poetry with Ebony Stewart

Online via Zoom

In this workshop, we will explore the idea of our own unique heritage as a museum of poetic artifacts, reflect on spoken word pieces, and generate writing. In the discussion portion, we will explore the concrete and intangible elements of culture, any logical or illogical fears these may evoke, and the impact of that. We will study how “Hairitage,” “Fear,” and Nina Simone’s “Four Women” depict culture and use literary devices to create memorable pieces. We will use all of our explorations of culture and fear to create new poems that use some of the literary techniques covered.
