Instructor: Karen Faris
You’ve polished your poems and maybe had some published. Now it’s time to read them to an audience—but you’re hesitant. In a safe, supportive environment, discover how to read aloud when you’re nervous; how to embrace the mic; how to be a better reader; and how to change the way in which you view writing, itself, by adding another dimension. Bring several pieces of your own work as practice material.

She is the author of Before There Was Yonder, the artist book, The Strings of Motherhood, and her poems have been included in aaduna, great weather for MEDIA and other places.
