*Star* The Journey - A Poetry Workshop *Star*
New Horizons Writing Academy Course Offering

"One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things." –- Henry Miller


"The Journey - A Poetry Workshop," as the quote above says is not about a destination, but a new way of seeing things. It does not include the nuts and bolts of poetry writing: meter, forms, etc. Rather, it will be a workshop requiring active participation in discussions, writing and sharing of poetry, and various other assignments which are geared towards looking into the three-dimensional aspects of the art of poetry writing: the poet, the reader, and the inspiration.

This seven week workshop is not for the timid nor is it for the critic. It is a workshop directed not at the "expert" poet but the "experienced" one who enjoys reading and considering the work of others and wants more insight into their own writing of poetry.

*Check2* The Journey is very interactive; in fact, it depends on each person's willingness to get involved and stay involved, responding in forum throughout each week of the workshop. There will be poetry writing, paring with another member, reading, forum discussion, and the use of a poetry journal. The workshop will also include responding to (not reviewing) the poems of your fellow poets, including the Instructor. We will travel on this Journey together. It will require several hours of your time each week be spent in forum, responding to your colleagues' comments and posting your own.

*Star* As a part of the official nature of The Journey, we do not "review" or critique each others' poems nor are they graded. You will receive credit based on your completion of assignments.

*Check2* Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

"The Journey - A Poetry Workshop" is a course offering under the auspices of New Horizons Writing Academy.
