The Poetry School offers a programme of classes to teach adults to write poetry. From the ongoing commitment of a year-long course to a burst of inspiration from a one-day workshop, we offer poets of all levels the opportunity to improve their skills. We are open to everyone, regardless of qualifications or experience.
The Poetry School started life in 1997 in London and continues to flourish there. As we have grown, we have established teaching centres in Manchester, Liverpool, Exeter, Bath, Bristol, Birmingham, Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle, Norwich and Cambridge as well as a growing range of online activities.

Publishing Your Poetry with Carrie Etter
Do you have poems which are ready for publication? In this seminar, you'll analyze the poem packs to identify the characteristics of our own poetry, cover submission procedures and magazine policies, and analyze poetry magazines to improve our understanding of the kinds of work they publish. Everyone leaves with more confidence in their ability to match their poems to particular magazines and hence with more confidence in their chances of getting published, and past student successes following the seminar confirm that that confidence wasn't misplaced. After a successful session in Bath we are running this workshop again in Manchester on Saturday 13 March.

I would like to thank Rommi Smith and the Poetry School for an excellent workshop where we covered a lot of ground. Middlesborough might not be the most attractive of towns, but it's conveniently accessible and the Thistle Hotel is a very good venue. Thanks for putting on these events in the North East! - Student, North East |
