Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: H. G. Dierdorff

October 3 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am CDT
Free – $40

The Nebraska Poetry Society is offering monthly Saturday morning online poetry workshops. Registration is required, and registration information may be found on the Nebraska Poetry Society webpage. Free with annual membership; nominal fee for non-members. Students, minors and others for whom the registration fee is prohibitive may request a free membership.

Explore how poetry can meet environmental crisis with attention, grief, desire, and care. In this generative workshop, participants will read contemporary ecopoets, question the limits of language, and write new work that reimagines responsibility beyond the self.

H. G. Dierdorff is a poet from the scablands and pine savannas of eastern Washington, the ancestral, unceded land of the interior Salish people. She is the author of Rain, Wind, Thunder, Fire, Daughter, which was published by the University of Nevada Press in 2024 and is a finalist for the 2026 Oregon Book Award. Their work has been awarded a Vermont Studio Center Fellowship and appeared in journals such as Cut Bank, The Shore, Arkansas International, and Willow Springs. You can currently find them in Portland, where they teach writing at Clackamas Community College and poetry through Literary Arts.
