Poetry Workshops

‘I never started a poem yet whose end I knew.
Writing a poem is discovering.’

Robert Frost

Would you like to write?  Don’t know where to start? 
Poetry writing workshops are informal and designed to be inspirational.  Many beginners find the company of like-minded others in a workshop situation helps them get started. The results may be shared with others in the group (or not) and refined in peer group reviews. Workshops will be led by experienced poets who will encourage, support and advise.

Affiliation
Poetry Teignmouth  is loosely affiliated to Moor Poets, the Dartmoor-based writers’ organisation, for the mutual benefit of both organisations.

Another Moor Poets writing workshop… Saturday 9th June, 10.00 – 4.00 pm, at Bovey Tracey Methodist Church Hall, Fore Street, Bovey Tracey TQ13 9AD, where Jennie Osborne will present ‘Bringing The Big Issues Home’. Jennie says, ‘The world is full of headline-grabbing events and challenges that can seem distant from our daily lives. How can we make the link and write about global issues without first hand experience? We will explore how other poets have done this, and how we can do it in our own writing – it's about finding a way of writing about the big themes that matter to YOU’. 
Again, this workshop will require you to be a Moor Poets member – just £10 per year – and a donation of £20 or over covers the workshop itself. To book, contact Jenny Hamlett: jenny.kanow@hotmail. co.uk
