REPLAY: Turns, Transitions, and Leaps

10 Effective Steps to Jaw-Dropping Poems

Thank you to everyone who attended Turns, Transitions, and Leaps. What incredible poems full of unexpected turns and infectious leaps. Being that this is a leap year, it is the perfect time to leap into those creative goals.

About this Workshop:

How to Add Energy and Excitement to Writing

Surprise is the backbone of any poem. Join award-winning poet Kelly Grace Thomas in this generative workshop to learn how to use tight transitions, unexpected turns, and lyrical leaps to create tension tight enough to have readers racing to the next line or paragraph. With a heavy emphasis on voltas, we will turn poems over and over to heighten your craft and compel the reader forward. 

In this workshop, participants will: 

  • Use surprise to create leaps in logic 

  • Learn techniques to use voltas to strengthen your work 

  • Break patterns to create momentum 

  • Remove connective tissue to create risk and danger
