Do you want your poem workshopped?
Posted by Robert
As you may have noticed, we're workshopping poems at Poetic Asides. Once a week (or so), I'll select a poem and give feedback to the poet. While I hope the feedback helps the individual poet, my grander goal is that it'll help out the rest of the Poetic Asides group as well by providing fresh ideas for looking at their own poems.
If you're brave enough to have your own poem discussed and evaluated by hundreds of other poets, then follow these rules:
- Use the subject line: Workshop My Poem
- Submit one poem in body of your e-mail
- E-mail to robert.brewer@fwmedia.com
- Be sure to include your name
Simple as that. Not every poem submitted will be used, but every poem submitted has the same chance of being used. If your poem is used, I will send you notification and a link to my feedback when I've made the post.
(Special note: I will not be using any poems that I consider perfect as they are. The point of workshopping is to look for new ideas to work your poetry--not to hear that you're perfect as you are. Good poetry is a lifelong journey not a destination.)
