Writing the Interior - with Victoria Adukwei Bulley Oct. 25, 2-4 PM Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network (8890 Three Tree Lane NE, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110)

Course description: If the self were a house, the interior would be the things it holds: the photographs, the books, and the plants we grow within it. In this workshop we’ll explore how to write poems that speak with the intimate, idiosyncratic voice of our innermost beings, with all of its poetic strangeness and freedom. Participants will be guided to generate new writing and receive feedback within the session.
