Meet the Muse: A 3-Part Poetry Series
Join poet Marie Olofstotter for a series of poetry sessions for writers at all
levels: meet the muse, explore your name, and capture a moment in your life.
Through a playful approach to writing, participants will be guided in the
creation of poems straight from the heart. We’ll use tools such as metaphor and
anaphora (pattern) to create vivid and compelling pieces of writing. In the
process we might discover, like famed poet Maya Angela, that “A bird doesn’t
sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.”
