Dear Friends,

I am very excited to announce that registration for The Fourth Series of my Living Room Craft Talks is now open. This fall I'll be covering six new topics--sentiment & sentimentality, the image, the line, form, eco-poetry, and the ode--with the help of six phenomenal poets: Mark Doty, Paul Tran, Jason Schneiderman, Victoria Chang, Marie Howe, and Ross Gay.

If you want to learn more about the strategies that you can employ to write poems that are vivid, arresting, meaningful and complex, I'd be delighted to have you join me in the Living Room Craft Talks: The Fourth Series. If you haven't attended the previous talks, that's fine. Each series is independent.

Warmly,
Ellen

You do not need to have taken the previous Living Room Craft Talks to attend this series.

I'll be presenting practical teachings that you'll be able to put to use at whatever stage of development you're atwhether you're just beginning, somewhere in the great middle, or are an accomplished and published poet. These talks are focused on poetry, but prose writers are welcome. This precise attention to structure and language will enrich your work as well.

The topics for this series are: Sentiment & Sentimentality, The Image, The Line, Form, Eco-Poetry, and The Ode.

And we’ll also be exploring other aspects of the craft, such as metaphor, syntax, the turn, the leap, music, diction, and tone.

We’ll be reading exemplary poems from a large and diverse group of poets. And there will be guest appearances from: Mark Doty, Paul Tran, Jason Schneiderman, Victoria Chang, Marie Howe, and Ross Gay!
