Breathing in New Sources of Poems: A Piper Writers Studio Offering

"In making poems, I work with a kind of poetic faith: a trust that the needed material will come, if only I remain alert and open. A trust that additional streams of information, from mythology or history or language itself, will come along to complicate and frustrate the process and ultimately bring it to completion." -- Gregory Donovan

For those of you interested in advancing your poetic side (and who live in or near Phoenix!), The Virginia G. Piper Center for Creative Writing (the proud home of HFR) has an opportunity for you to work with excited professional writers that want to help inspire and educate new talent.
