Do you find yourself struggling with what to say? Is writer’s block really a thing? Have you ever thought about what you’re not saying? Many writers face the page and get stuck with what to let out. Craft can often get in the way of what actually wants to be expressed. This unique workshop will explore three principles that have helped artists Ali Black and Donald Black Jr. of Balance Point Studios tap into an endless supply of content to create from. Before the poem comes the process. The benefit of having a process creates clarity and understanding of what it is you want to say prior to exploring craft and how you want to say it. In other words, you can’t write a poem without first exploring what you want to say. Join Ali and Donald as they guide you through our own creative process of using photo theory, conversation, and poetry to respond to a single photograph.
Format: Workshop
