“Writing and rewriting are a constant search for what it is one is saying.”
​— John Updike.


After conquering the blank page, writers spend the rest of their time revising and editing a piece until they get it just right. This is often where the magic happens – finding the right words, swapping things around and making difficult choices about what gets to stay. Poet Chris Tse will lead a workshop to take your first scrappy drafts to the next level. Participants are required to bring a work-in-progress poem that they’ll share with the rest of the group for feedback. Be prepared to make tough editing decisions and get some serious re-writing underway in this intensive practical workshop.
