SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Keisha-Gaye Anderson
DESCRIPTION: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. \n August 24\, Keisha-Gaye Anderson “Crafting Identity: How to Write Like Your Authentic Self” Who are we? Who are we told we are? Who do we know ourselves to be? This workshop will explore how identity—imagined\, imposed\, and re-imagined—is utilized in poetics to communicate and construct objective and subjective reality. Through close examination of language\, structure\, form and other devices used within selected poems\, workshop participants will become familiar with approaches to this craft that focus on powerfully probing and defining identity\, in ways that empower them and accurately reflect the themes or experiences they are exploring in their writing. To that end\, a series of writing prompts will be used so that participants may generate poems from different perspectives in order to move closer to the expression of their essential/hidden selves in their writing. We will also tackle basic elements of poetry and discuss workshop poems using select poetic forms. \nKEISHA-GAYE ANDERSON is a Jamaican-born poet\, writer\, and visual artist based in Brooklyn\, NY. Her poetry books include: Gathering the Waters (Jamii Publishing 2014) Everything Is Necessary (Willow Books 2019) and A Spell for Living (Agape 2020)\, which received the Editors’ Choice recognition for the Numinous Orisons\, Luminous Origin Literary Award. \n
