Through this practice, I've learned to lovingly set aside my inner critic in order to stretch into my own narrative. Finding my voice in this way has been nothing short of magical. I’m forever grateful to this community, and for the ability to share this practice with others. ~ Amy May

About this Offering
Designed especially to support the irreplaceable poets who will be offering their voices to Great Salt Lake at our reading on March 22nd. In the company of lake-facing friends, we will learn and practice some tools for revision. This workshop will offer a friendly context in which to lovingly polish existing writing. Bring a draft of a poem: the rougher the better!
About River Writing
We create a friendly place to practice by making community agreements. We read poetry aloud to find prompts and then write with pen and paper to say the truest things we can say. Before beginning, we agree to be kind, to keep each other’s confidence, and to listen to each other with undivided attention. We agree to take care of ourselves and to share responsibility for creating a welcoming space. Everyone is invited. We practice non-judgement by forgoing apology, critique, and praise. It can be challenging not to praise each other, but we choose to opt out temporarily in order to take respite from the culture of comparison. Sharing your writing is optional. When you choose to read, we respond simply by saying thank you.
