Have you ever wanted to write poetry but felt held back by your lack of formal knowledge? Or are you already writing poetry and would like a better grounding?

I've studied much #poetry in academic settings, often super boring & I can say THIS 1st session on sonnets was a delight. Interesting, inspiring, organized, substantial. Can't wait for Rhythm & Ballad in session 2. TY, @saloneurope.bsky.social.
Next session 23 November - Rhythm and The Ballad.
