Join award-winning poet Kelly Grace Thomas in this generative workshop to embrace the odd and highlight the specifics. In this workshop, we will play with the surreal, the fictional, the unbelievable to write poems so hauntingly specific and oddly unforgettable. Find out what adding a little weird can do for your writing.  

In this workshop, participants will: 

• Play with replicable exercises to add surprise and strangeness to their work

• Push language to create new sonic and emotional patterns 

• Use sensory detail and diction to play with characterization and worldbuilding

• Emphasize play to reshape, reinvigorate, and “weird up” all drafts
