REPLAY: The Direct Address

Increase Intimacy and Impact with these 7 strategies

Thanks to everyone who came out to The Direct Address *This is just a reminder that participants' poems are not recorded, so please attend live sessions to listen to others and share your work.

Join Kelly for a two-hour generative workshop where you will utilize the precision and power of the direct address to maximize the impact and intimacy of a single audience. From people to places to entities, supercharge your writing with clear direction and intentionality. We will read and discuss poems by Matthew Olzmann, Diamond Forde, Tonya Ingram, Ocean Vuong, and more.

In this workshop, participants will:

  • Identify the audience to tighten argument and form

  • Receive concrete tools to sharpen questions and narrow focus

  • Garner new language to increase precision and pathos

  • Amplify emotion, momentum, and meaning

  • Leave each workshop with two new drafts

Full Replay is only available to paid subscribers.
