As we are approaching a new year, you may be thinking about the connections you want to make with fellow poets and expanding your writing community. Writing can be a solitary experience, and discovering peers can electrify your practice, pushing you to the next level.

Building a writing community is one of the best things about joining a workshop; you will meet people with the same goals and form relationships that will help you to stay motivated and encourage you to write more.
