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.

What can a poem hold when it speaks directly to someone, something, or a former self? In this workshop, participants will explore epistolary poems as a way to write through intimacy, distance, memory, and contradiction, and leave with fresh drafts and new ways of thinking about what poems can do.
