The exercises themes include:
If these five exercises aren’t enough, check out their other sessions, including a Seven-Session Writing Exercise, a Thirty-Session Writing Challenge, and additional writing exercises from guest teachers:
This is a great resource if you need ideas for conducting a writing workshop for your own poetry group or just to get the poetry wine flowing.
I love this quote shared on their site, “The purpose of poetry is to remind us how difficult it is to remain just one person.” — Czeslaw Milosz
Enjoy and get writing!

Liz, I just have to say thank you for all the terrific resources you find and share on your blog. Really appreciate them – and you!
I’ll take that compliment… assuming it was meant for me ;-). My guess is Liz is a fabulous person too! Thank you for commenting!
What A ditz I am! I was reading another blogger’s post just before yours and her name is Liz. Sorry, Trish.
No problem! That’s better than what auto-correct does to my name… “trash” doesn’t have such a good ring to it 😉
