Finding Your Voice(s): Writing Outside Yourself~ A Poetry MasterClass ~ with poet/singer-songwriter Nathan Brown We often hear the phrase “finding your voice” in writing circles. In this workshop, Nathan proposes that poets, in particular, should seek out and work with many different “voices”—tones, dialects, characters, and personas. Good poems will often employ dialogue (two, even three voices) in order to convey a more powerful message. So join us as we explore bringing into our verses the “others” who live inside, around, and with us. You must register to attend; only 24 places are available. Course cost is $60. Contact Richard Kushmaul for availability. [email protected]/ Oklahoma Poet Laureate 2013 – 2014, Nathan Brown is an author, songwriter, and award-winning poet living in Wimberley, Texas. He holds a PhD in English and Journalism from the University of Oklahoma where he taught for seventeen years. Nathan is an accomplished poet and songwriter who has performed readings and concerts from the Walt Whitman Birthplace Association in Long Island, NY to the Sisters Folk Festival in Oregon, the Woody Guthrie Festival in Okemah, Oklahoma, and Sultan's Pool just outside the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem in Israel, to name a few. He's taught writing workshops from the famous Blue Rock Artist Ranch and Studio near Austin to the Everwood Farmstead in Wisconsin, and the Descanso Writers Retreats in Tuscany and Ireland. His performances of poetry have been likened to musical concerts. Click here for the brochure PDF file: finding_your_voices[35890]_pst_work.pdf
