I will join Cornelius Eady, Robert Hass, Brenda Hillman, and Sharon Olds to staff a week of poetry workshops this July at Squaw Valley, in the California Sierra Nevada mountains. Special guest Galway Kinnell will lead special one-day workshops on a few afternoons during the week. Participants will write and workshop a new poem each day of the week; craft talks are scheduled for one hour in the afternoon, with the bulk of the day reserved for writing (or walking in the mountains, or talking with other poets, etc., etc.). It's a fabulous experience -- a chance to immerse yourself in poetry, absorb new ideas and strategies, and take some risks! Click on the link for more info. Applications are due May 12, so don't sleep!
