Harry Griswold is continuing to resurrect his poetry-writing workshop which met a
long time on our campus before the pandemic. New, interested writers are welcome regardless of experience. He will pursue contemporary American-style poetry, rather than classic rhyming style. What’s important are well-chosen details and sincerely-conveyed feelings. The next Tuesday meeting date in Palmer Library will be June 6, from 11:00 am until no later than 2:00 pm. At the meeting Harry will
provide instruction and time for writing. In the week following each meeting Harry
oversees an email exchange of poems and helpful critiques by all participants. For
more details or questions please contact Harry at griswold@san.rr.com.

From previous post:
Harry Griswold is restarting his poetry-writing workshop which met on our campus before the pandemic. New, interested writers are welcome regardless of experience. For one example of contemporary American style poetry, look up “Billy Collins poems.” Denise Duhamel is another poet you might look up. Three Tuesday meeting dates in Palmer Library are set up, each starting at 11 am and continuing for a couple of hours or so. The dates are May 2, June 6, and July 11. At these Harry will provide instruction and some time to try writing. Each meeting will be followed the next week by an email exchange of poems and helpful critiques by all participants.
