April: A Month for Poetry

April is National Poetry Month and it's shaping up to be a busy one. In addition to participating in the annual poem-a-day writing challenge, I have a few events and a workshop on my docket. I hope you might be able to join me for some of them!

Come write with me in April! A Nature Poetry Workshop

I'm excited to lead "Before the World Is Green," A Nature Poetry Workshop for the Native Plant Society of New Jersey. We will meet online on four Saturdays in April, writing together through the muddy but glorious early weeks of spring!

No experience is needed for this generative workshop. We’ll slow down to observe the blooming of a new season, reflect on the memories, meanings, and concerns that nature holds for each of us, and locate images and language to contain them.
