That's right, folks! This month, we'll be hosting another Poetry Workshop courtesy of Poetry Crew! If you're not familiar with Poetry Workshops yet, it's a great opportunity to come and learn about poetry and how it's constructed; we'll dissect a poem and discuss different parts, and if you wish, rewrite the piece in your own distinct style. It's a great chance to learn about poetic elements and the different nuances that make awesome poems so awesome. So be sure to sign up below!

I've given you a time table below that lists the times that will be in your area, and this time we're focusing on the Eastern Hemisphere!

If there's any extra space, I'm in. :]
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.

It will be October 22nd for every time listed on the chart during the workshop. So the folks in the early AMs will be like that Friday Night/early Saturday morning. And those in the PMs will be Saturday afternoon!

I'll take a spot!

I just realized this is at 4:30 in the morning for me, so I'm going to give my spot up to someone who doesn't need sleep. xD

I"ll think about it. Like Jas, I may need some sleep. How long does the workshop last?

Just around an hour. A little longer if the folks participating want.
