SUMMARY:LARFP Winter 2025
DESCRIPTION:A five week online (Zoom) workshop best suited for continuing participants and more experienced poets (open to open form) in workshops facilitated by Cascadia Poetics Lab and Poetry Postcard Fest Co-Founder Paul E Nelson. Participate in reading and discussion of foundational essays\, interviews\, listening and other assignments\, as well as spontaneous poetry composition exercises\, in the first of three five week courses to happen before the next postcard season. In Winter 20205\, we will explore passages from Cascadian Zen Vol 2 – Basket Four\, and related texts and assignments. How can one’s poetics be a cosmology and how can one maintain some experience of the Poetry Postcard Fest\, & allow one’s life as a creative participant in the world to rise in one’s personal hierarchy of duties/activities? How is the projective poem an antidote to Silicon Valley attention fracking? $250 for each five week session per person\, scholarships are available.

SUMMARY:Poet as Radio Fall Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Poet as Radio: Writing from Intuition\nA 5-week online poetry workshop designed for folks with a wide variety of experience with poetry and with a keen interest in spirituality and the occult. This course is more than a workshop—it’s a journey into the unknown\, where you’ll discover hidden messages and ideas both from within yourself and the outside world. Through chance\, divination\, games\, and ritual\, you’ll learn to trust your intuition and let your spontaneity guide your writing. \nParticipants will engage in surrealist games to encourage spontaneity\, explore the poet as a receiver of intuitive messages\, and incorporate techniques like cut-up methods\, tarot readings\, and rituals into their writing practice. Readings will include works by Jack Spicer\, Hoa Nguyen\, and CA Conrad among others. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your poetic practice\, this workshop will provide you with the tools and inspiration to transform your writing. Join us to tune into the frequencies of your creativity and uncover hidden messages within and emanating from the world outside! \nSundays 3-5:00 PM Pacific Time\nNovember 10 – December 8\, 2024 \nNovember 10\, 17\, 24\nDecember 1\, 8

SUMMARY:Poet as Radio Fall Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Poet as Radio: Writing from Intuition\nA 5-week online poetry workshop designed for folks with a wide variety of experience with poetry and with a keen interest in spirituality and the occult. This course is more than a workshop—it’s a journey into the unknown\, where you’ll discover hidden messages and ideas both from within yourself and the outside world. Through chance\, divination\, games\, and ritual\, you’ll learn to trust your intuition and let your spontaneity guide your writing. \nParticipants will engage in surrealist games to encourage spontaneity\, explore the poet as a receiver of intuitive messages\, and incorporate techniques like cut-up methods\, tarot readings\, and rituals into their writing practice. Readings will include works by Jack Spicer\, Hoa Nguyen\, and CA Conrad among others. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your poetic practice\, this workshop will provide you with the tools and inspiration to transform your writing. Join us to tune into the frequencies of your creativity and uncover hidden messages within and emanating from the world outside! \nSundays 3-5:00 PM Pacific Time\nNovember 10 – December 8\, 2024 \nNovember 10\, 17\, 24\nDecember 1\, 8
