Sounds of Silence: The Art of Punctuation in Poetry

April 30, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

$25 – $45

Punctuation works differently in poetry than in the mundane world of work emails and everyday prose. Why do you need to learn about it? Because it’s a great tool for control, texture and mood-tweaking! This isn’t a “rules” course—we’ll be looking at the effect of stops and pauses in the work of master poets such as Louise Gluck, Anne Carson and Brigit Pegeen Kelly, as well as other usual suspects and new arrivals, and chatting about the feel of various marks on the page. You’ll leave this course excited about the always considered, sometimes unorthodox choices you get to make as a poet!

Craft Curiosities workshops are open to all experience levels across various genres and mediums. You must be 18+ to attend.
