Poetry: Post-Beginners & Intermediate

This 12-week course is an opportunity for those looking to further develop their poetic practice by writing and workshopping poems which explore voice, theme and form. 

Looking at traditional forms such as the sonnet, villanelle and sestina, as well as more experimental approaches such as erasure and procedural poetics, you will continue to unlock your poetic potential by honing your skills as well as developing new techniques.
