Wr 12: Workshop poem due tomorrow

Be sure to type up enough copies for your workshop group since we do not have class Friday.

Antony and Evann present the work of Patrick Lane. If you were absent today, be sure to get the notes from Shan and Gill regarding the poet, Karen Connelly. You must do the exercise they shared with the class as well as make up the writing time you missed and the USSR time whenever you miss a class.

We have approximately two weeks before your manuscript will be do so this weekend, edit, revise, write, edit, revise, write. Take home excellent poetry books to inspire you. Go over all of the quick writes from class to uncover great poem beginnings and finish them off.
Monday is workshop and computer lab time.

Tuesday, we will be talking about endings.

We have been invited to SMUS to read so we'll be preparing for that event soon.

Need a literary event, check out Planet Earth Poetry every Friday night at the Moka House on Hillside Avenue.

Two poems due Tuesday.

Next Friday, the poet and host of Planet Earth Poetry, Yvonne Blomer will be visiting and the week after that we will be having John Lent read his work to the class.

Also, Oct. 23, The Fugitives with Brendan MacLeod and poet laureate mentor, Jeremy Loveday will be performing in the library.
