Women Writing for (a) Change, Jacksonville

Join us for a workshop to shape your poetry before you submit for our anthology...or any other platform!

Whether you’re new to the submissions process or a veteran, this workshop will invite you to consider your writing with new eyes. Perhaps you’re in love with your first draft and think every word sits exactly right—or maybe you have a great idea but are having a hard time saying exactly what you mean. And sometimes, when work gets submitted for publication, the work comes back with ”suggested edits’—but which suggestions are most helpful?This Empowered Writer session on Radical Revision (Poetry) will be led by poet, teacher, and Women Writing for (a) Change facilitator Anna K. Jacobson, with insights from Kristin Holliday Kessler, author and developmental editor, both of whom will be serving on our Anthology Editorial team this year.This session will consist of strategies to play with your poetry drafts and find ways to make your ideas shine through clearly. The goal is to help you shape your poetry to be submission-ready for our anthology—or any other publication. In this two-hour Zoom workshop, youll work in large and small groups to hone your skills as rigorous, compassionate editors of your own work. Important: Please come to class with a draft or two that you want to play with. All those who identify as female are welcome!
